  • In Moretown Vermont the weather warmed up to about 55 degrees today with rain... It was enough to break loose the ice that covered the Mad River! I happen to be outside when I heard a couple of snaps and cracks I looked over at the river and saw a wall of ice...

      Perhaps it may yet still happen, if you get the right combinations of copious precipitation, extended cold, radical swings of freeze and thaw, and, debris lodging up against narrow defiles. I just hope that you have enough Public Works and Safety Engineers to warn the people of imminent dangers, should such calamities happen in the UK. I should think that Scotland would be more prone to stuff like this, with all of its gorges.

    It all reminds me of reading Jack London. He wrote frequently about the ice breakups in the Alaskan/Yukon/Klondike gold mining districts. Colossal chunks would build up in narrow defiles, pinches, in a river's, a creek's course, and these had already substantially battered along banks upstream. Pressure would build, with more and more water being impounded behind these dams. All of a sudden, it would all explode free--kablooey!! Chunks bigger than houses charging down faster than locomotives, and being so cold, the ice was at least as hard as steel. Boulders heaved up from the streambed, groves of trees pulled out entire, no more of man's feeble bridges, entire mining villages obliterated, mudbanks several yards thick instantly generated. With new channels created in only a few hours, minutes, when it all retreats, new channels and shoals, maybe more than a mile from the old streambeds, laden with locktight debris, corpses, and carcasses. All with tremendous roars and crashes!

    There is no ice jam here. This is an ordinary spring ice break-up, where the ice chunks flow smoothly downstream. An ice jam means the ice stops flowing when something "jams" it and then the river starts to overflow its banks in order to get around the jam.
