Mount Etna erupting under the snow
It was a memorable New Year's Eve for many southern Italians as in many areas, even at sea level, it snowed for the first time in recorded history. Weather forecast had predicted this extreme cold wave and prepared people for the worst, but in the festive spirit of 'capodanno' it all acquired a magical atmosphere. People cheered la neve and shared pictures on social networks. We selected some of the most impressive photos for you.
