Answers:    Modern bonded windscreens have no room to move, unlike previously ones mounted in rubber, and can be underneath substantial stress already. If there's a stone-chip there that you may not even own noticed, that can be ample to trigger a crack given just a touch more stress.

Yes, it can happen & I've see it several times, in certainty the neighbour's screen exploded next to a bang when he poured a kettle over it. I suspect you might procure away with thaw out, as opposed to HOT, sea. You MAY be lucky, in certainty you clearly have be so far . . .

I've never known it arise, but hot water freezes tremendously effectively if it's still very cold, so I use any de-icer or neat screenwash.
