It doesn't hurt!!! Why put extra stress on your data when you don't need to right?
Just my opinion.

Anyone read the specs of your SSD?
Even the enterprise / industrial ones are not recommended for sub zero weather..

Some industrial grade SSD's are rated to work as low as -40c. Overall, using your consumer grade SSD will enhance its lifetime if you refrain from using it in subzero temperatures.

At high temperature, programming and erasing a NAND cell is relatively less stressful to its structure, but data retention of a NAND cell suffers. At low temperature, data retention of the NAND cell is enhanced but the relative stress to the cell structure due to program and erase operations increases.
