This looks like the patterns I used to doodle on my notebooks in school
Looks like a Turing Pattern so I’m guessing there are particles or ions in the water which affect its freezing point. The pure water freezes and rejects the ions, lowering the freezing point of the nearby water creating these banded freezing patterns.
Anyone knowledgeable enough to tell me if I’m right or wrong?
I understand the circles because you have a nucleus to start freezing outward from. Similarly to how hail works. But I don't understand the straight lines. Very interesting
Could be current or some slow water movement moving between the frozen clusters or iceflakes

Hebra ambient music intensifies
