I have always used a pitcher of warm water to clear the windscreen on those cold winter mornings. Just run the tap till it gets warm to the touch and pour on the windscreen. Usually helps to run the

I don't see this as a problem IF the hot water is generated by the car then it is more than likely that the w/s will have been warmed by the defroster somewhat. I agree that dowsing the w/s with hot

I've seen this from two extremes. Warm water cracking a cold window and Cold water from a hose shattering a HOT window. I was in Bakersfield on a 120 degree day. Went to hose off my mini blazer work
