Notice that it is at a bend in the creek. This type of current is not uncommon with the right flow and bends, but I have never heard of the ice formed this way before.

At Niagara Falls, the Whirlpools form downstream at a bend and are very visible from above for the same reason of formation.

Will it be Eddie, or Eddy?

The latter will offer up the possibility of hopelessly obscure jokes in reference to Notre Dame football teams from 1965-68. just in the “Nick” of time.
