Cold enough

Was once deadheading on a North African carrier that had landed at Geneva on its way to Zurich..OAT in the double figures..my captain spots a sheet of clear ice on the wings and sends me to cockpit…it took two full goes to clear the ice caused by cold soaked fuel. It had been missed by our company engineers who handled the turn around.
