When its cold the wind chills are even colder. With that being said your engine is being hit with very cold weather that wont allow it to go higher then opt temp (180) More then likely if its 40*F then the engine is probably running at about 160*F - 150*F thats why when you stop moving it goes back to normal, around 180*F. Your fine.
