Yes, keep your cool with the dealer: its not his fault, but he has to sort
it out. As to why this happened, the clue is "snowing and raining". The
first place I'd look is the air well in front of the windscreen. If this
gets a combo of snow and rain, it can freeze and clog drain holes. When you
garage it, the top melts first and water can run inside though the air
vents.
