frozen carb intakes

I just visited a post by Jay in ND about erratic engine rpms on a relatively healthy M. I'm not sure his is the same problem but I do recall in my years at home we had to deal with frozen intakes on our gas H,M,SM and the neighbors gas SMTA. They would start ok but the longer they would idle they would start to choke down in cold mornings and the carbs would start to build up frost on the outside some times and sometimes not but to correct it dad would throw hot water on the carb and it would be ok immediately. Never really got a grasp on that one except I only assume it had to do with the velocity of air going into the carb causing a vortex cooling effect much like pulling tractors with water and alcohol. Whats up with that? Allen and CNKS help me out here.
