The only thing I could dig up was a quote from an event saying winter hadn't come to the North Shroud specifically. I guess if there's some weird aether going on around there that'd make sense. It's closest to Coerthas which very clearly has some sort of ice aspected aether imbalance.
I think you're remembering the Winter's Knell event from 1.0, in which Gridania was facing an unseasonably late and warm winter. Which, during the course of the event, was corrected. The bit you said about North Shroud jogged my memory! But yeah, that happened in 1572, 5 years ago.

The weather up in the North Shroud don't seem t' be gettin' as cold as it rightly should this time o' year, ye see, an' them Gridanians is bloody wailin' about it. Bah! We're it up t' me, I'd strike the season from the reckonin' an' go straight to spring, but ye could be sure them tree-botherers would spout some bilge about the bleedin' circle o' life. Anyroad, the Gridanians was scratchin' their heads at the whole affair when some bollock-brained Ala Mhigans told 'em about this festival o' theirs called Winter's Knell. S'posed t' beckon the blessin' o' winter, or some such rubbish.
