RTFM You will get lots of opinions but remember they are worth what they cost. Not saying anyone is right or wrong but the book will give you a reasonable starting point.

The "recommended" pressure is no different, summer to winter.......because you always check the pressure "cold"......that is, when the vehicle has been sitting unused overnight.
The slightly different absolute amount of air needed will automatically be taken care of because the "cold" temperature will be different.
Then......do NOT worry about what the pressure is after a long ride if it has increased.
If it has gone DOWN, then there is a problem.

Same....
Just start out with the measured cold pressure you normally use. Tires will go up in pressure as they warm up but as long as they do not go below your choice pressure you will have the ryde and handling you are comfortable with.
