Tire pressure

When traveling cross country I find myself in large temperature changes. Starting in 70 to 75 degrees and wake up the next morning at 40 degrees. My tire pressure has dropped 10lb across the board.
Do I add the 10lb or let it go knowing it will be at lest 70 by noon.

That can also go the other way leaving north country at 35 degrees and the next morning waking to 60+ temperatures where the tire pressure is now 5lb above the max rating. Does one start letting air out?

I cross the country at lest twice a yr east west and north south and have been pondering this a lot lately.
Thank for any input you can give me.
Rick
