What you're seeing here is a fascinating natural phenomenon. In late winter and early spring, as temperatures fluctuate, trees can start to "bleed" sap, especially from wounds or openings like the one in this tree. When the sap flows out and then hits freezing air, it can form these unique icicles. It's often called "sapsicles."
Trees draw water and nutrients from their roots up to their branches, a process known as sap flow. As the days get warmer and the nights remain cold, the internal pressure within the tree changes, pushing the sap out. Different trees produce different types of sap; for example, maple trees are well-known for their sweet sap, but many other deciduous trees will produce sap that can freeze this way. It's a sign that the tree is waking up from winter dormancy and preparing for new growth!

Pretty interesting

Remember when we were taught in science class how ice takes up more volume than liquid water? This less density/more volume combination is like freezing a full water bottle in a freezer, then taking it out and opening it up, only to have the ice try to jump through the opening in the now-open bottle. A similar process is exactly how frost quakes occur. These won't knock down your house, but sudden booms, or seconds of sustained rumbling can occur whenever a frost quake happens nearby. Depending on how shallow the water table or excess groundwater is in your location, these quakes can often be quite startling. Keep this in mind, especially later tonight when temperatures drop to near 0°F again. Areas that are NOT running a drought deficit are most "at-risk" for frost quakes.

Shoutout to our Indiana affiliates Indiana Weather Network and Indiana Weather Online for allowing us to use their graphic to help illustrate the process. Give them a follow if you haven't yet for all weather updates regarding the Hoosier state
