Strong winds have created a picturesque ice wall on the shores of Lake Pyhäjärvi near the municipality of Säkylä in the southwestern part of Satakunta.
The phenomenon is caused by low pressure, which has intensified southwest winds across the Gulf of Bothnia and pushed ice to the shore, according to Yle Meteorologist Matti Huutonen.
"As the ice thins, the wind has been able to push the ice masses to shore," Huutonen explained.
The story continues after the picture.
"This often happens this year on the shores of larger lakes and by the sea," Huutonen said that there were strong winds in the area over the weekend.
"In the Säkylä area, the strongest gusts were 17-18 meters per second," Huutonen said.
The phenomenon has attracted the attention of people in the surrounding areas, and many sent pictures of the formation to Yle. Check out the gallery below.
