“Early winter is surely winter” as the old adage goes. A British-led Mohawk raiding party attacked Royalton, VT on this date in 1780, with mid-winter conditions, including 8 inches of snow on the ground. Although the winter appears to have started early, no records of the winter make note of any severe cold and snow.
