You are correct! However, whether the water in question freezes depends on:
1. The ambient temperature. The lower the temperature, the quicker the water freezes.
2. The length of time the water is exposed to below freezing temperatures.
3. The mass of the water. The less the mass, the quicker the heat it holds is expelled, thus the quicker it freezes.
4. the wind chill factor the water is exposed to. The lower the wind chill factor, the quicker the water mass will expel its heat.
Only the OP can decide what risks he is willing to take. All it takes is one very cold, out of the ordinary weather event to do a lot damage.
