Hello dears
Overflow, A situation observed on frozen rivers when the water flowing beneath the ice seeps up through cracks in the ice. Occurs as the ice cover on the river thickens, freezing steadily downward toward the river bed, and the space available for water to flow is decreased, causing increased flow velocities and pressure. Overflow and the patches of open water and wet snow associated with it are problematic for travel on rivers in cold climates.
