nope. just supercooled water, that's all.
ps, sorry for the half naked german guy. lol
better vid - showing it into slushie, instead of solid ice.

That's not really meteorology is it :wtf:

It's actually a good question. Usually the glass breaks when it is suddenly exposed to a large temperature difference. In this case, the water is a little under 0 C. It merely crystallizes due to the addition of ice particles. Will the glass break ? Hmm, crystallization is an exothermic process, so heat is generated. How much heat will it generate ? Not enough to break the glass. But super cool the water down to - 40 C and then crystallize it. Maybe the glass will break in that case.

Ok, there's a negative sign before 150. And even that is extreme. So, bring it down to -40 C.

and yes, snail, it's meteorology, because clouds/rain/ice can do it too. all you need is for one tiny little ice crystal to hit a super cooled cloud, and BAM! blizzizzard

Arrowhead Springs water into the ice tray, then 2 cubes into my water. The only way to dine with a champ.
