It'll work better in the antarctic. Freezing over the arctic waters permanently would freak people out and change global weather patterns.

You could go all Mr. Burns and use a giant Shade spell to reduce global temperatures, or just locally (at the poles, frex). Localized shading won't work as well due to air and water circulation.
