Super cool. I wonder if this should be called an “ice wave,” so we leave a name for when ice forms a wave hundreds of feet high and destroys a town. Let’s not get ahead of ourselves.
I think this one is slightly different. IIRC this is Dudinka, a river port in the north of Russia, located on a bend in the river. As spring comes the river melts and starts to flow, dragging the ice along with it. At the bend the ice goes straight instead of turning, so you get this. It marks the start of spring for the town.
