If you went by real-world logic, the circle of cold air would have a lot of warm air trying to move in and fill the low-pressure area, so you get warm winds and stuff - however, in this case I'd be inclined to just stick with whatever the spells say that they do (since such a scenario would eradicate the circle of cold air completely).
