I think I know what's going on here.

Notch, I hope you read this.

If an ice block is placed in mid-air and is melted by a source of light, such as glowstone, then it will melt into water while staying in the air. The water will remain suspended in the air until a block adjacent to it is modified.

Ice melts into Still Water, and Still Water doesn't create current unless adjectent blocks are updated. Does Ice melt into Still Water?
