Might be a bit of rust or dirt on the rim or even the tire! Low temps cause one or both to shrink a very small bit? Demount tire and hit both the rim and the tire bead with some fine grit sandpaper?

My left front tire will hold air all year. Except during the very cold
days of winter. Then it will go flat. Have never found leaks with water
and bubbles.
