Nah, I think it was somewhere else. It was mentioned on a TV programme the other day and was caused by a combination of very rough seas and very cold weather.
It happened near a coast and waves were hitting the shore sending up sprays of water, then because of the extremely cold temperatures the spray from the sea was freezing as soon as it landed on anything.

New York for sure, upper east side.. outside the learning academy

Frozen cars in the USA are usually pictured in Chicago near the lake shore.

Maybe it was a different one that I saw on that programme then. As long as it doesn't ever happen in london i'm happy!

I know the pictures you are talking about, when I first saw it I thought it was that too but this is defo New York. See bbc link, hammer and chisel to get the ice off! BBC News - Car frozen in New York: 'I'll need a sledgehammer'
