It concerned an apocryphal 18th century lady of ill repute nicknamed `Lady May' who was often arrested in November when it became cold and spent the rest of the winter incarcerated out of the weather. She inveigled herself out of jail when it turned warmer in May. The expression arose `Don't cast a clout 'til Lady May be out'.
