Jiffy ice augers can bind due to several reasons, including ice buildup on the blades, dull blades, or a misaligned blade. Regular maintenance, such as keeping the blades sharp and clear of ice, can help prevent binding issues. If the auger continues to bind, it may be best to have it inspected by a professional to identify the specific cause.

Why your finger stick to a metal ice tray just taken from refrigerator?
When you touch a metal ice tray that has just been removed from the refrigerator, condensation forms on the surface causing your finger to stick. The moisture acts as a sort of adhesive, creating a temporary bond between your finger and the cold metal surface. This effect is due to the difference in temperature between the metal tray and your warm finger.
How does dropping of leaves help plants to adapt to the extreme cold temperature?
Plant leaves usually have plenty of free water molecules in them. Under extreme cold conditions, if essential oils are not present to bind the water molecules in them, the free water will change in to ice, thus increasing the volume of ice crystals and ultimately rupturing the cell wall. Dropping of leaves saves the plants from damage caused by the ice formation. On the other hand, plants like Junipers do not drop their leaves and thrives well in snow deserts with the help of plenty of essential oils in them.
