Does the low-air tire warning light ever go on because of sub-zero weather?

Thanks...I'll keep an eye on the tire pressure...the light actually went OUT just a few minutes ago... Thanks again...
I experienced this a couple times on two different cars - when the temp drops so does the tire pressure, ever so slightly but it can be enough to trigger a low pressure light. Mine ended up being about 3lbs low when cold - I live in Arizona so we get some big temperature swings at times - 80 in the day and 30's at night sometimes - it happens
Thanks a lot for your input... That helped my thinking...
This happens to my tires every fall when temps start getting below freezing. Cold Air is denser, so the pressure will drop some times. Once you drive a bit the pressure will go up as the tires warm. If this continues to be a problem, you might need to get your wheels wire brushed for a better winter seal.
Mine are dropping almost 15 psi overnight, in all 4, my jeep has under 4000 miles. Anyone have an idea?
