A brief synopsis is given of Norwegian historical records which contain climactic data from the period 1675-1715. Although we still do not know how much climactic data can be found in them, we do know which contain relevant material and which do not. The quality of the data and how the records should be used for research into the climate of the period in question are discussed.
