I have read in several sources that tire pressure measurements
should be made when the tire is cold.  Does this mean  that the
tires should be a certain temperature or simply that the car on
which the tires have been mounted had not been driven for a given
period of time.  I've notice that on a hot day that the pressure
can increase just from exposure to direct sunlight on a hot day.
Is there a way to compensate for this.
