warped front brake rotors. just replace them, good idea to do your pads at the same time.

warped brake rotors, pad out of place debris caught between the pad and rotor will all cause this problem. Take your car to a shop and have them check out your rotors and pads.

warped rotor.
worn down rotor and brake pads.
if you only noticed this in the snow it could be from snow buildup inside the wheels.
its normal.
just wash it out thoroughly.
