Looks like the Thermal conductivity (W/mK) gets better as it gets colder, while the Specific heat (kJ/kgK) gets worse. That is w/ below 0C temps.

I noticed that the low point for water's specific heat CAPACITY is about 35C. Then as temps increase or decrease, the specific heat CAPACITY increases. I think I said all that right.
