How does a Jan/Feb holiday affect this year’s March number (that was reported in early April)?

I’m not talking about the Feb number that is reported in March.

The number being discussed is not March alone, but the percent change. So March's number relative to February's number.

A holiday that warps numbers in February will no longer be warping things in March.
