Even if that wasn't confusing, when our roads are bare and dry and we get highs of 10° for a week straight in January it understandably becomes tempting to disregard the "winter" speed limit. Ideally you'd have variable signs on all major thoroughfares that the operations centre controls based on conditions, but that would rightly fail any kind of cost-benefit analysis.
That said, there is already a provision for the fact that the posted speed limit might not be achievable at all times based on weather, the ole "too fast for conditions" that is seldom enforced.
