Resum

The scarcity or lack of systematic information about meteorology for the centuries covering the Middle Ages means that all meteorological information provided by other historical sources are useful and relevant. There are many sources that have been analysed from this point of view, but in this study we introduce a source that has been ignored until now. It is the trials and, specifically, those trials against supposed witches, focusing our study on all the documents of this type conserved in the Episcopal Archive and Library of Vic. The necessary concision that the communication provides does not enable us to make a detailed analysis of each reference or eachmeteorological fact recorded, but the essential factor is precisely to compile the references so that they can be taken into account and studied in depth in later work.
