Gauges Faulty in a Snowstorm

On my way home tonight in a bad snowstorm, my traction control light went on and stayed on, then the tire warning light came on, then the ABS and brake light came on, and the the speedo stopped working. The defroster override to temp-controlled heater stopped working.The car drove normally.

I did a search here and on MINI2, and while there wasn't much help, some owners indicated some similar problems due to wetness.

Can that be? Has anyone else experienced this? I suspect a fuse or two, but I'd like to get some wisdom before I go back outside.

Thanks.

OK. It's all better now. Everything is fine. I guess it just went a little crazy in the snow with iced-up ABS sensors, etc.
