I have no canonical diameter for the island, so since we are in Japan, i will scale the area of this island to Honshu, which has an area worth of 227960000000 m^2.
This is the island that was buried in ice and snow by the way.
And since the island looks disfigured with no accurate shape, i will assume a circle.
Plugging the area into this calulator:
Island's Raidus = 134687 meters.
Island's Volume = 1.02345e16 m^3.
The ice seems to have covered the island and pierced the clouds.
Density of palm wood = 800 kg/m^3.
Density of water = 1000 kg/m^3.
Density of clouds = 1.003 kg/m^3.
Density of air = 1.225 kg/m^3
Total Density = 1802.228 kg/m^3.
Mass = Volume * Density
Mass Frozen = (1.02345e16)*(1802.228) = 1.844490247e19 kg.
Specific heat capacity of air = 1005 J/kg.
Specific heat capacity of water = 4186 J/kg.
Specific heat capacity of wood = 1760 J/kg.
Total heat capacity = 6951 J/kg.
Keep in mind that during a blizzard, the air temperature goes down as low as -12 degrees.
Southern sections in Asia are mild to hot, with the highest temperature being recorderd being 54 degrees.
Change in temperature = 54 - (-12) = 66 degrees.
Specific Heat Capacity = Q1 = M*C*Delta T
Q1 = (1.844490247e19)*(6951)*(66) = 8.461894125e24 Joules. (1)
Heat of Fusion of water = 334000 J/kg.
Latent Heat of Fusion = Q2 = M*H
Q2 = (1.844490247e19)*(334000) = 6.160597425e24 Joules. (2)
Adding (1) and (2) together:
Total energy = 1.462249155e25 Joules = 3.494859357075 Petatons of TNT (Continent level+)
Conclusion[]
Freeze The Heavens = 3.494859357075 Petatons of TNT (Continent level+)
