The Mad River ice Jam January 12th 2018 the mad River ice jam January 12th 2018
Ғылым және технология
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...

That is so awesome I miss seeing the ice in the water I live out here in California so thank you for sharing that is so cool
Gnarly to the max, my dude. Thanks for sharing a piece of nature's awesome power and beauty!
Thanks for sharing from Florida. Looks pretty gnarly to me and I love watching it.

Edward Goldberg thank you for watching!... glad you enjoyed it!... i was lucky it didn't rise any higher... the river supposed to break again in the next month or so and I plan on being a little bit more prepared for it.
I've seen many river ice break ups here in Maine. This video is not an ice dam, it is an ice flow.

That was really neat to watch. I've never seen it actually happening!
I gotta remember to make a urology appointment to check my prostate...
Thanks for posting this. Here in Texas we never see anything like this.
I was watching ice flow down the Mississippi in Monticello MN today. Its so mesmerizing. Was a lot less ice than this though

From calif. the whole thing is knarly! Thanks.
Amazing!! Lovely video xx

I work in Montpellier Vermont and the river is near the building and it did have a ice jam and the two foot thick ice blocks was higher than where you are filming this . It was scary. . It’s now just running water with huge ice blocks on the bank .

"This is CRAAZY." Doesn't this happen every year? Yes, yes it does.
I've seen the ice jammed along the shore of Lake Erie, but I've never seen it in motion. Incredible! The force of water and ice is not to be played with. Did the ice take out that bridge down the river? Thank you for the footage! Mother Nature sure knows how to put on a show!
Dude ! big icebergs ,about to get gnarly

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.
To this day . . . .he is still waiting for it to get gnarly.
Gnarly dude. Wish one of you would have held the camera still and the other one try running across the river jumping from ice to ice berg. That would be "gnarly" dude!
A reminder of why I moved from Alaska to Arizona..
Was it a strawberry jam ? Because I don't see an ice jam

Still waiting for it to get knarly almost a year later. And is this more of a flow...after a jam? We don’t see a lot of these in Texas, but just guessing. 😂
I'm a covered bridge in New Hampshire. This is the stuff us covered bridges have nightmares about.

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!
1986 just called. It wants the word "gnarly" back for it's time capsule.....lol

I find these relaxing as long as no one is getting hurt. Different strokes.
One week it was very cold the week later the weather went into the 70's and every beaver dam broke and the entire area was full of ice.
Well that's just gnarly
See now I could watch things like this for hours. Far better than the vids made up of 16yo playing video games while talking 'bout politics.
its great for kayaking, esp up streem.
crazy what a little warm weather can cause to ice

That is some serious ice.
That's very weird. Big jagged pieces of dirty ice in a flowing river.
We have alot of that in fla. It looks cool . bet it causes havoc
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.

Flash floods happen when the ice jam starts and backs the water up behind it. Here is an example of after the ice jam breaks and the river floods and leaves the ice behind on the shore. his just happened last week across the iver from us. A small town upstream flooded from the ice jams. wnep.com/2018/01/27/taking-advantage-of-warm-weather-in-luzerne-county/
The river looks MAD but we need to know where this Mad River is located and where you actually took this video. That helps a lot get some prospective.

Красиво!
Ice jams are like dams! My place was flooded from Ice Jam!
Mad River's a madlad
What was to your left? Show it going under the bridge.
And I think the name Johnny "Vermont" is s clue, lol 😁
nothing I would call gnarly.
the whole video is pointed at where the ice is coming from....too bad we cant see where its going and piling into things...
Why did you leave the truck idling? Nice video, but it would have been better without the background noise.
Was this the first time the cameraman had seen ice in a river? I’m just curious as to what took place to provoke him to say "amazing".

I guess gnarly is in the eye of the beholder, or maybe you had to be there. This seems more like kinda neat.

Its always that one dam iceberg that slowly tries to cross all lanes to its exit in the final 100 feet
Gonna get knarley? It already is!
