A method and apparatus for detecting an icing condition. The apparatus comprises a piezoelectric material (304) and a vibration detector (308). The piezoelectric material (304) has a surface proximate to a surface of a vehicle. The piezoelectric material (304) is configured to vibrate. The vibration detector (308) is configured to detect a change in vibrations in the piezoelectric material (304) that indicates a presence of an icing condition on the surface of the piezoelectric material (304).
