Might be symmetry with à cette période de l'année. I do use "à cette saison" though, sometimes I find it flows more easily than "en cette saison".

| Aug 22, 2013 at 15:39 | comment | added | Édouard | La phrase est définitivement incorrecte. Encore une fois, d’où vient-t-elle ? Tu l’as lue quelque part, tu l’as entendue ? Distinguer les « à » et les « en » n’est pas toujours simple à l’oreille, surtout avec certains accents. | |
