    Those frost indicators can be off.....Mine will show a frost warning at 38*F.......

    I always check for spray.....If there is none...Get out your ice skates....:biggrin_2559:

    Another thing is look at your mirrors. If the base is icing up thats another sign. Spray
    Is the telltale sign. If ya dont see it your on it
