Start with
  DEF:temperature=   ...
  CDEF:minus20=temperature,POP,-20
  AREA:minus20
  STACK:temperature#color:legend
and remove any errors I made.

The "CDEF" statement uses "temperature,POP" to get an empty stack
but with a time/resolution component.  Then it pushes the number
-20 on this stack and ends.  This results in a constant of -20.

Next, AREA is used without a color; this results in a transparent
area.  On top of this invisible area, temperature is placed.
