I am no claiming to be any great expert. I think Billy maybe seems to hae a good idea on the subject.

All I know is what I saw in college. What we did was pour a bunch of 2" cores and 1/3 of them went in the freezer, 1/3 went under water, 1/3 were stored at room temp. All this was AFTER the initial 24 hour setting period.

We tested them every week for a month and charted the results. It was real clear as time went on that the under water was the strongest, room temp second and frozen a definate third.

If it was me I would wait till spring. The winter without or the time spent empting in the spring will pale in comparison to the years of dealing with a broken up floor.
