GENEVA, SWITZERLAND – Switzerland is settling into a more stable weather pattern, with western areas having lows just below zero and highs of 4C and a cloud cover alternating with some sunshine. Canton Valais will be slightly warmer, with highs of 5C and sunny skies for the next few days. The shift from last week’s storms has brought colourful skies. Below, an egret watches the sun set behind Lake Geneva, Allaman, Rolle and the Jura mountains, before flying over with the French Alps for a backdrop.
