Huck,
The "yellow snowflake" jokes have all been made. In other discussions it has been observed that the symbol is yellow as a sign of caution, and that the snowflake is not the only symbol in that icon. The snowflake rests between two curving lines and some kind of dashed center line, so we think it is a "caution - roads may be slippery" warning.
This may be very useful to drivers who are unaccustomed to black ice or the first cold spell of the season, when driving habits adjust. The snowflake will stay on until the outside temp goes above 37 F., and there is nothing you can do about it except to say, "Yep, it's cold!"

Finally got cold enough in Dallas amusing yellow snowflake to light in my car. Just thought I would post this for new folks who like me missed the information when it was first post here.
