Looks like you are pretty high up there! Could be ice, happens at higher altitudes!

 

They used to use an old guideline 2* drop per 1000' , don't know if that changes after a certain altitude?

That old guideline of 2* drop per 1000' of altitude is probably okay for lower altitudes, but, if you were flying at 30000' you should certainly see a larger drop in outside temp than 60*, that's for sure!

 

Just out of curiosity, at what altitude were you flying when you captured that screenshot you posted?

I once saw a B-767 after a flight from Korea, up close. It SHOCKED me just how much ice was around the bottom side of the wingroot area... took many hours before it melted away.

 

I've no idea if that's common or very very rare, as we didn't normally have intercontinental flights arrive at the ramp I worked at.
