Run the pressure you normally run.
When the pressure drops from the lower temperatures, pump it back up to normal.

My post was aimed at the "this time of year" part of your question.

You'll get a lot of different opinions about what the psi should be.

There is no universal tire pressure. Tires are all different. Some things you need to figure out yourself. Do the chalk test and go from there.
