Strange weather phenomenon?

While driving home tonight from a good game of badminton at the Y, had a
strange thing happen- the windshield fogged up.  Both sides, right across,
to the point where I couldn't see through it!  Luckily it's a small car
and I am a tall guy- stuck my head out sideways (40 MPH sure gets fast)
and drove on (much slower)

I had just turned on the heater blower to warm up my hands a bit.  I was
also changing altitude.  However, this hasn't happened to me before, in
any of my other cars- although then again, I haven't had a convertible
before!

Then, as quickly as it had fogged up, it cleared.  (The heater was still
on).  I didn't notice any fog outside the car, although we are
experiencing some odd weather (thunderstorms, fog).

Can anyone explain?  No moisure appeared to have vented from the engine-
the overflow tank was dry, no hoses split, engine looked fine (when I got
home)  Did I just release a long-incarcerated slice of Coventry from
somewhere within the bowels of the car?
