Spotted on a morning walk with Churchill the dog, this puddle froze in a most interesting pattern as the temperatures dropped quickly yesterday.
According to our Resident Expert on Things Natural and Frozen, Billy Joe Fudge, this happens when the water level drops faster than the surface can freeze, and can even occur on much larger scales. Comments | Permalink
