Basically the title: If I leave the freezer door slightly open it seems to be “more frozen” than before – big chunks of ice on everything, stuff frozen together. Why is that? The food can go bad in this state but it LOOKS colder (I know this is stupid). In my mind it should just melt and warm up 🤷🏻♀️
In: Physics
After you close the door, the cooling will have kicked up to try to compensate for the heat that has come in. Sometimes this can temporarily spike the cold in your freezer or refrigerator, and in the case of the refrigerator you will notice some items near the vents frozen because they are near the source of cold.
