Hi,
Windchill has to do with rate of heat loss. It is not possible for the temperature to be lower than the "real" temperature of -12 f.
Amazing to me how stuff I read in books don't seem to apply to the real world around me. I do realize what you say is true but shielding my stock tank from that wind keeps it from freezing as fast. So there is an effect caused by the wind in my real world.
Both of you are correct. The water will freeze faster with wind, but the outside temperature will be the same in the wind or out of it. If the outside temperature is above freezing, no amount of wind will make water freeze.
So, to the OP, you should be good to go.
