So where I live it gets as low as -40 in the coldest days of winter and in the summer it usually tickles about 100F. October is usually when the nightly cold weather starts, with lows in the 40s or so, and it just takes progressively longer each day for the day to warm up (and therefore the high temps drop over the course of the month) and usually November/December is when the temperatures are below freezing more often then not (with January/February being the peak of winter and when we get snow that lasts until the thaw in late March/early April
I don't bother with snow tires because we really don't get much snow where I live anymore. Maybe like a foot total each year, so I just get all-season tires which I leave on year round. Only times my tire pressure drops noticably is when we have the one week of -40 each year and that's when my pressure can drop low enough to trigger the warning lights, but it doesn't even happen most years. I also really don't top off my tires often at all. Maybe like once a year when I feel like they need it but otherwise they tend to stay fine (maybe the shop tops them when I get my oil changed? I should ask about that...)
Where I live is nowhere near that but we do have distinct seasons. Similar to what you said I don’t bother with snow tires because we don’t get much and all the towns are really good about clearing it. However it’s warm enough that we don’t get snow that stays through winter. Any how, seems like I get these warnings about every other year
But yes, a lot of shops check and adjust tire pressure when you get oil changed.
