True, it will freeze faster but will not go below 32%.

You are absolutely correct. A jug of water in 33 degree temps and 40mph winds will not freeze.
The term "feels like" is only true for those things that can feel.
The temp of an inanimate won't go below the outside temp but like a human it will cool down much faster in stronger winds. A MH isn't air tight, winds will have an effect just like on a house. Water won't freeze above 32 but below 32 it will freeze faster if the winds are strong, it is a factor.

Probably not. Unless ALL lines are enclosed in heated areas, the wind will freeze them.

All of your lines should have been winterized by now. Just leave the pink stuff in until you get to TX and then summerize. Re-winterize before going back north if necessary. Cost should be less than $20 and you are safe.
