Explanation / Answer

Theoretically, phase change of water will be from liquid to ice as it falls from room temperature to -15. However, in an ice cold day of winter, humidity levels are very low, thus our lips get very dry on winter, for example. As humidity is low, any wet surface will dry rapidly, beating phase change.
