Combined with high humidity, water condenses and freezes in the venturi increasingly restricting airflow. Ice on the exterior of the carb may or may not be evident. No doubt though that external ice is not going to help a thing.
I thought about routing coolant to the carb or deflecting heat from the pipe toward the carb. Luckily in CA. It just doesn't get the wet and cold very often.
