I would cut these and go with llight longees or heavy tights and your wind 
pants.
That's my combo for 40 degrees.  I love fleece but it is really heavy.  You

That's a lot of tent/weight but if it's what you have...

Where is the windscreen?  In the grocery store, they sell
disposable aluminum oven liners which make nice, cheap
light windscreens.  cut down to appropriate. size of course.
