Could one really get ice accumulation on the airframe in the range +4C to 0C, at typical GA airspeeds (below say 150kt)?
The answer is yes, but the probability is obviously reduced at either end of the temperature spectrum.

Worth remembering that ice can even form on an airframe in above-0 conditions if it flies into freezing rain dropping from above.
