Live and learn, but it's a bad idea to open or close a vinyl window top in cold weather. Vinyl becomes more brittle in the cold. Also, when putting the top down, watch to make sure the window folds correctly, without any creases. If it starts to crease, stop the process, get out, and then gently push the window into proper shape. You may have to raise the top slightly to do this.

I'm guessing your window had a crease when it was down, and it cracked right along that crease when the top was raised. Sorry to hear about this, but it might be a good opportunity to get the glass window replacement top.
