Explain the phenomenon of

Ice waves move to the edge of a large lake when winter ice begins to melt and strong winds blow continuously.

At the end of February, the winter ice in the Northern Hemisphere began to melt. In large lakes, countless icebergs are blown into the shore by the wind, forming waves of ice slowly invading the area around the lake, also known as the "ice tsunami" , according to the Guardian.

The necessary condition to create "ice tsunami" is to have large cracks on the ice surface of the lake , creating many free floating ice on the lake surface that begins to melt. After that, strong winds must be blown for at least 12 consecutive hours.

The phenomenon of "ice tsunami" often occurs in large lakes in Canada, the northern United States and Lake Baikal, Russia.

The force of the wind accelerates the giant ice sheets to the shore. Although the tape moves slowly, nothing seems to be able to stop it. The ice broke, stacked when approaching the ground. According to one study, the ice sheets were pushed about 400 meters for several hours, although they only encroached on the land a few meters.

The phenomenon of "ice tsunami" often occurs in large lakes in Canada, the northern United States and Lake Baikal, Russia. It clogs the path on the lake, damaging trees and buildings. Those who witnessed this scene said they heard a clattering sound created by ice like a train passing by.
