Heh, there's an understatement :-)  Coming back from the UrQ BBQ in
CT, I came close to parking on the side of I-84 because whiteout
conditions dropped visibility to under 50 feet- you could see
taillights of the few other cars on the road, but not much else.
Mass pike wasn't much better.

In defrost mode, the A/C helps dehumidify the air.

I could be wrong, but I'm fairly certain the climate control head
runs the compressor any time you're in Auto/defrost/bilev and outside
air temperature is above 40 degrees- regardless of the temperature
setting.
