Default Water bag

I headed to Reno for Hot Augst Nights today and had a good ride. Barbara did well at about 20 mpg up to Auburn. Gassed up an then for an experiment I filled and added a water bag to the light bar for cooling the radiator. Refilled in Truckee and on to Reno. Got to the hotel and had to add .5 gallons of water😳. She did not lose water from Oakland to auburn. So I was talking with dad to let him know she did well on the trip and he thinks that even though the bag was wet, cold and dripping water like it should that t still blocked a lot of air flow over the radiator. Does this sound reasonable?

Ps I was surround by Chevys until a mustang pulled in behind me. There is actually one other stock Model A here as well, a 31 Tudor.
