If there was a layer of frozen water in the tanks, does this mean the temperature of the FUEL drawn off would by definition be very near to or lower than zero certigrade?

If so . . . . if on a cold morning the temp of the drawn fuel is taken with a basic thermometer AND it is at or below zero - BEWARE - ice could be present in the tank?

Comments from someone more scientifically literate most welcome!!
