25 December 1245: The terrible and unusual snow that had been falling in Ireland for the previous few weeks finally ended:


Poisonous
snow fell on the night of the festival of Saint Nicholas, [Dec.6]
which took off the heels and toes of those who walked
in it; and this snow did not disappear until Christmas
arrived.
