Ambient temp and tire pressure

The reason I asked originally was because a month ago when the temperatures were in the mid-70s in the morning I was spot on 30. Last couple days we've been down in the low 40s in the morning and now my tire pressure being 27. Guess the simple answer was deflate in the summer inflate in the winter. I have a good gauge and use nitrogen so there's not a lot of inconsistency just in the ambient temperature. Only way to overcome that was check often.

Ok so question... you're to check and fill the tires at "while cold", I understand that. What I am trying to figure out is how do you compensate for ambient air temperature differences. If I check in the summer in the AM and say it is 75 deg out and set at 30psi. That would be different if it was 45 deg out and I set them to 30 psi right? Or does it matter as long as the tires are cold.
