Summer compound tires really lose a lot of grip when temps dip below 50*F. It takes a while for them to warm up, but they still won't be as grippy as they would on a 70-80 degree day.

When temps drop even lower, closer to freezing and below, summer compounds are worthless as they turn into hockey pucks.
