MCO doesn't do much de-icing. They'll also just wait until the weather warms up and the overnight ice melts.

I trust that the pilots will look at the potential for ice (yes, wings can be icy at 41 degrees, especially if the sun is not out) and properly respond in those cases. Better to wait for it to melt than to risk flying with iced wings.
