Scratch, dont know how it is in Chorley but my old gran always said,

English translation,

Never take off your vest until May is well past.

nearly always cold up here in chilly Jockland

'May' in that rhyme is talking about the May flower, the Hawthorn, not the month. It means don't discard your vest till the Hawthorn is flowering, which can be anywhere from the first to the last week in May.
