In reply to Webster:
The refreeze effect in High Pressure weather usually only occurs up to about 3 or 4 degrees. Last night was plus 6 on the top of aonach mor.
Its basically similar conditions as you see frost forming on your car even though the temperature is above freezing. Of course the snow pack its self must be below freezing as otherwise it would be water, so that also effects things somewhat also.
