The Icing on the SVX Cake

Yesterday morning it was very foggy and drizzly. It rained some during the day. Last night the temperature fell below freezing.

This morning I went out to go to work. The driveway had a thin coating of black-ice (verglas) on it. My 92 SVX sat out all night. I pushed the button on the keyfob. There was the customary beep beep and the lights inside the car went on. I grabbed the door handle and pulled. The door stayed closed I promptly started to slide and my feet went under the car. I landed on my Kiester. I got up, walked around the car and tried the other door. It wouldn't budge. The locks were undocked but the doors were frozen shut. I went back around to the driver's door and after a few minutes of yanking, I got the door opened. The car started instantly as usually. Then I got out and used the scaper on the windows.
Driving to work I noticed that none of the windows would go down. By the time I got to work the heater had unfroze the windows.

Have any of you "northern climate SVXers" had these problems and do you have any solutions ? Don't say put the car in the garage. That's not an option. The 97 SVX and Rosie's 97 Outback stay in the garage.

Thanks for any help.
