Being from the Northeast for many years, that is definitely frost. No worries on it ruining your paint Lyndon.

its just frost....

as you can see from right to left there is more frost to the front windshield than the right (rear windshield) since the sun is coming up from the right side it is melting more, as the sun rises the frost on your sunroof and top of your spoiler will start melting

just a minor break-down for ya

No biggy bro. It's just a little bit of frost. Go was your car and wax it and it will be back to new.
