From the documents of the time it is known that frost began in France on November 10, and a document from the French parliament reports that San Martino's day was an "unbearable cold" and that it was writing, despite holding the ink near the fire to keep it from freezing, it was "three words in three words". It lasted until January here, but resumed in mid-February less intensely and ended definitively in April. In the rest of Europe, frost was exceptional: the Thames was completely frozen for a record period of 14 weeks from December to March, polar ice even reached Scotland, isolating Iceland completely; the snow in Florence remained on the ground for 45 consecutive days, the olive trees, vines, and other fruit trees were dried up. Even in France most of the vineyards and fruit trees were destroyed. Notemodify wikitesto
