Tire pressure warning system

The 5 pieces of dust in the inside of the clock on the lens is more noticeable than 1-2 psi difference in tire pressure, especially with the darker clock face. I’m not staring at the psi gauge everytime I drive, I have it set to the hybrids system diagram. I look at overall tire pressure when there is a sustained significant change in temperature.

Just looking for opinions from fellow GS owners. Do you all adjust your tire inflation with the weather changes. As in winter time here in Florida, if it is in the low 50's in the morning, my tire pressures start out at 36. We have had a heat wave, so the morning pressures are now 38 or higher. Would you all release pressure to get down to 35ish, or just let it ride. I know, two lbs. probably doesn't matter, but just wondering how OCD everyone is given that Peasodos could not live with himself having 5 specs of dust in the clock

Beginning in early fall when the typical daily temperature starts dropping I'll tweak 'up' in tire pressure to last a month or two, and then do it again as needed to keep the cold (garaged overnight) tire pressure from dropping below the minimum recommended air pressure. This may take 2-3 additional tweak 'ups' throughout the winter. As the weather warms chances are good that the last time the tires were tweaked 'up' will last well into the spring and summer because the warmer temperatures and sunnier days will naturally increase the tire pressure.

I'm the same with the tire pressure. I've also set all 4 tires where all of them change to the same measurements within less than 1 minute or less while I'm driving the car. Unless of course the Sun is hitting on one side of the car only then that side is slightly higher.
