Icy Stalagmite

Our gas furnace exhausts out the side of our home with just enough humidity left to start this stalagmite of ice underneath.

 

Drop by drop it mounts up as the temperatures remain under freezing, which can be for many weeks. The height can get pretty high if left alone. I may try to measure it prior to the first thaw, which at this point, cannot come soon enough for me.

 

The light was near sunset and set up a nice inner glow in the ice.
