    It looks like what the frame of the trunk would be to me... but that doesn't explain anything. So, aliens?

    It's something under the trunk lid that is putting off heat in that shape. Doesn't make a lot of sense, since there shouldn't be anything under there doing that. It's akin to the defroster wires on your window when it starts warming up.

    Otherwise, I am going with the helicopter theory.

    IF that's where the frame of the trunk is, then the metal is obviously thicker there and would have more heat energy to transfer to the snow than the thinner areas around those frame pieces which would run out of heat to transfer more quickly than the thicker areas causing the thin areas to reach a temperature low enough to not melt the snow while the thicker areas still had just enough heat to transfer to melt the snow for a little longer. And THAT my friends is an example of both the Second Law of Thermodynamics AND the worst run-on sentence I've ever written...

    I can help you with the writing; I needed you for the thermodynamics lesson, though.
