I got the same thing in snow. It kinda freaked me out as I only had the car a week but it makes sense! It can't protect you from what it can't see!

Btw what is that coffee icon on the dash? Is that the way the car tells you, you have been driving for a while and need a break?

The Mrs. uses it to remind me of items on the "Honey Do List". "Go to Starbucks!" She has a grocery icon too..

I did have fun driving in the snow though.
