It's probably too cold for frost.
Confused? Let me explain.
The ice you get on your car is basically frozen mist which condenses on your windscreen then freezes.
If the ground is frozen solid and the air is dry then there is no mist to freeze no matter how cold it gets. Also strong wind will stop it from forming.  |

a quandary, could you change my mind? |
No scraping the screen for ice here either, just brush the snow off. Been having to fill the screen wash up yesterday however that was like slush even though its meant to go down to minus 20, outside temperature was minus 7.. |
