it seems there was a sub-zero layer, with base of somewhere around 1000',
At the standard lapse rate of 2 degree/1000' I would suggest it was at roughly 1500'

I would have been surprised if you didn't pick up ice

BTW in jets we put the engine anti ice on at 10 degree C or less in visible moisture.
