To chipmunks, it's like the weather is saying, "Cold storms coming! Be prepared!" The chipmunks already stored their food, so all they need to do is be prepared and wait... Because hibernation means winter and winter means cold weather and cold weather means snow so there's barely any food around for chipmunks.
