Nice to hear from you again Island Girl!!!

So close.
Distilled water freezes at 32F once it gives up enough heat to complete the phase change.

What you are describing is Latent Heat

''Because this energy enters or leaves a system during a phase change without causing a temperature change in the system, it is known as latent heat (latent means hidden).''
