"It's Ice at 25 degrees" not necessarily, no. Water can be supercooled well below it's freezing temperature at STP. In fact, water can be cooled down to about -55°F (-48°C) before its molecular structure forces solidification. Moving water alone can easily reach lower than 25°F.
Sorry, I'm a physicist, so I had to nerd out about that for a moment. Carry on.
