I wonder if Bobspirts overhead DeLorian styled windows have caved in
under the snow and ice load. Or popped out due to shrinkage.

That is a weird picture as Lake Geneva is fresh water and yet it is not
frozen, nor is the walkway covered even in snow.
Here boats get covered in snow in winter but not ice.
Must have been a prolonged period of freezing fog to get boats like that..


I believe it was prolonged period of freezing rain Edgar, here's another
