Ivan Polli sent me winter pictures to show how snowstorms (blizzards) look like in Switzerland. Trains do work! 
Great photographs, Ivan! Thanks for sharing!
This video slideshow is pretty old. It was uploaded in 2008. However, the event depicted in pictures is more older. An ice storm happened in Switzerland’s Versoix on Jan. 29, 2005.
Thanks to a Facebook friend Pietro I found this video on YouTube. Just enjoy an incredible spectacle that can be called “The Day After Tomorrow Near Geneva”
