The temp at the time was about 40F. I think that was more due to poor tread than temperature, however, I think below 32F they may get worse.
I am now researching new tires and like most topics here, there are enough opinions.

Old tires need to be replaced even if they aren't worn. The industry sources that I've found say 7-10 years is the max life of a tire. Mnboxster states a shorter time span without stating his source.
