So I know on a warm day with wind it can melt alot of ice. Is the opposite true? If it's cold with wind can in make alot of ice?
Wind chill has no effect on ice making, a flag pole outside is 10* outside, and windchill 40 below, the flagpole is still gonna be 10* !! Windchill only effects living things like us, dogs , cats, ect.

Ambient temp of 40* with a wind of 60 mph will feel like 25* but ice will NEVER be formed ...
With a wind, the warmed air is being removed at a faster rate so the water is constating being exposed to colder air and this will promote faster ice growth.
If the ambient air temp is less than or equal to 32*...
In the spring or fall, when I go fishing with air temp in the 34 to 36 degrees. Now why is it that I get ice frosting up on my rod tip while casting and reeling?No frost on ground, no ice crystals on water...
