A controller for determining when icing conditions are present on an outside surface of an aircraft may include a first input receiving a moisture condition on a windshield of the aircraft, a second input receiving an outside temperature, and an output that provides an icing condition determined as a function of the first input and the second input. The moisture condition can be provided by a moisture sensor positioned on an interior surface of the windshield and the windshield may include a heating system.
