NEWPORT NEWS, Va. (WAVY) -- Lux the Skunk predicted an early spring during the "Not So" Groundhog Day celebration at the Virginia Living Museum Sunday.

The museum's ambassador striped skunk thrilled the audience alongside WAVY-TV 10's Meteorologist Jeremy Wheeler reprising his role as master of ceremonies.

Lux made his debut prediction since the traditional forecaster, Chesapeake Chuck, remained in hibernation.

"Our native wildlife never ceases to amaze us with their remarkable adaptations. While Chesapeake Chuck follows his natural instinct to hibernate, Lux demonstrates the incredible diversity of winter survival strategies," said Deanna Orr, Ambassador Animal Manager. "By honoring these natural behaviors, we're not just celebrating our animals – we're showcasing the fascinating ways Virginia's wildlife adapts and thrives throughout the seasons."

Other animal predictions on upcoming current events also took place. The museum's white tail deer duo predicted the Philadelphia Eagles will win the Super Bowl, the turtles in Piedmont & Mountains Gallery predicted Sabrina Carpenter's "Short N' Sweet" will win the Grammy's Record of the Year and Danni the porcupine predicted that the Oscar's Best Picture will be awarded to "I'm Still Here".

RICHMOND, Va. (WAVY) -- U.S. Senator Tim Kaine (D-VA) released a statement in reference to President Donald Trump signing an order to impose new tariffs on imports from Mexico, Canada and China.

Trump kept his tariffs pledge. Is he ready for the fallout? Are Americans? What to know

“Virginians want lower prices, not higher ones, and the last thing we need are new, senseless taxes on imports from America’s three largest trading partners," said Kaine. "During President Trump’s first term, his trade wars hit Virginia hard. Our farmers and foresters were especially affected, but everyone suffered. Everyone, that is, except for Trump’s cronies—billionaires, bitcoin bros, and offshore bandits. Here we go again.”

Goods from China would be subjected to a 10% tariff, compared with 25% for Mexico and Canada — which will cause an increase in cost on basic goods such as cheap apparel, gas and food.

Tariffs: What do Trump’s executive orders say and how would they work?

The White House said in a statement that the tariffs were being implemented in order to pressure the three countries into stopping the flow of fentanyl and immigrants. In response to the order, Mexico and Canada stated they plan to retaliate, with Canada ordering a 25% tariff on American imports. Mexico has yet to announce a number.

On Friday, Kaine, along with Senator Chris Coons, introduced the Stopping Tariffs on Allies and Bolstering Legislative Exercise of Trade Policy Act. This comes after he introduced the Protecting Americans from Tax Hikes on Imported Goods Act to shield American families and businesses from increased costs by limiting the president's authority to impose unlimited tariffs under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act.

"Virginians want costs to go down, not up," Kaine said. "But President Trump's plans to impose broad-based tariffs would raise the price of everyday goods and hurt our economy. It's time for Congress to make it clear that no president should abuse existing tariff authorities designed to protect America's national security from threats posed by our adversaries to slap tariffs on our allies and closest trading partners. I'm proud to introduce this legislation with Senator Coons to take that step to protect Americans' pocketbooks from sharp price hikes and safeguard our relationships with our allies."

PORTSMOUTH, Va. (WAVY) -- Investigators with the Portsmouth Police Department have decided to reopen a pair of cold case investigations after they exhumed the remains of two baby girls who died nearly 30 years ago.

The remains of the two infants were each discovered at the SPSA waste management facility located at 4 Victory Blvd.

Their deaths were ruled as homicides.

The first victim, who officers named "Baby Angel Valentine" was discovered Feb. 13, 1995. The second victim, who officers named "Baby June," was found June 24, 1996.
