When it gets near freezing, the refrigerator no longer needs to cool; since the refrigerator part isn't cooling, the freezer comes up to the ambient temperature also and all the frost will melt. Any ice on the fins in the refrigerator part will melt also.
I ran into this years ago on my first RV with a refrigerator. I went to the dealer complaining that the freezer wasn't staying cold. They explained that when the thermostat in the refrigerator part thinks it is cold enough, the freezer will naturally defrost.
