As a child, the phrase, "In like a lion, out like a lamb", was repeated and talked about each year.  The expectation was that as March progressed, the weather would move towards windier, warmer days, with the whistling of birds becoming more consistent.
Well, over the past years, the familiar phrase has turned inside out.  March 1st is uncommonly mild, both in temperature and wind speed, but as the end of the month rolls along, the mighty ROAR is heard on March 31st.  Another March to see what happens.
