    Where March's saying "in like a lion, out like a lamb" comes from...

    “If March comes in like a lion, it will go out like a lamb.”

    You may have heard the saying, but where does it come from? Google reports that, according to search traffic from the past five years, searches for “in like a lion” and “in like a lamb” spike in early March every year.


    According to the Farmers’ Almanac, the weather folklore stems from ancestral beliefs in balance, meaning if the weather at the start of the month was bad (like a roaring lion), the month should end with good weather (gentle, like a lamb).
