There's no danger for the town itself. Everyone is safe. Just too much snow, and the (rail)road to Zermatt was closed (like for many other resorts in Valais, Northern Italy and France). It's getting better from today on - no new snow expected.

They have closed railway line and roads as a protective measure, so Zermatt and some other villages are cut off from the rest of the world. But there is no danger for people and houses. Only that people cannot leave the place.
