winter on Lake Constance

A picture with triple rarity:

1. It rarely has so much snow on Lake Constance, but from the afternoon of December 1st, 2023 to the evening of December 2nd it snowed non-stop. Numerous roads in the region had to be closed due to snow breakage or the risk of snow breakage

2. Normally Lake Constance has significantly less water in winter and the island pictured is not an island, but rather connected to the mainland by a rather unsightly strip of gravel.

3. In late autumn/early winter 2023, dreary, gray weather will prevail. Sunrises with some color in the sky are rare, but on the night of December 3rd it had cleared up and it had become bitterly cold. During the morning it started to get dark again...
