Does your diesel run colder when it is close to 0?

Last night my SDL just would not get above 80C, usually it runs just above the 80C line probably around 83-85. It was about 0 out and I was just driving around town, but no matter what I did it would not budge above 80. Well until I dropped it down to 2nd and got on it then it started to come up to temp. Is this normal? I was keeping the rpm's up in 3rd but still the temp wouldn't get above 80. Maybe because their really was not any load on the engine, I would imagin on the highway it should come up.


The good news is she starts right up, so far no starting problems.
