Unusual Icy Wheel Buildup

On a snowy day in New York I was taking a drive, and when I stopped for lunch I noticed something interesting on my back wheels.

The snow and slush spray had built up on my wheels in an interesting pattern, collecting on the outer edge of the wheel, as well as the inner raised portion, the lug nuts, valve stem caps, and even little bits on the tire sidewall itself.

Interestingly the right rear wheel had a slightly different pattern on it, with ice collecting in each of the holes instead of the middle portion.
