Last year we wrote about a mysterious water anomaly, formed on the Kuban River in the Krasnodar Territory. On melted literally overnight a fantastic even circle appeared on the ice with a diameter of about eight meters, continuously rotating under the influence of the current. The edges of the imposing ice block are as if measured with jewelry accuracy by a giant compass and cut chainsaw. However, experts reported that people here neither at what.

Like, calm wind and minus seven degrees Celsius, observed here for more than a week, created ideal conditions for the emergence of a circle of frozen water. “Such discs sometimes form on the external bends of rivers, where due to the accelerating current, a slow rotation of ice occurs. Rotating ice grinds against the surrounding ice, thereby acquiring surprisingly round shape, ”says the specialist.
It is noteworthy that the diameter of the ice circle on Snokvalmi, according to the observers estimate is about twenty-six feet – about the same as the disk that once stood on The North Caucasus is a peculiar tourist attraction. True, if the Russians plunged freely on their “carousel”, then Americans approach their mysterious ice circle they are afraid. You never know what …
