What card are you using Marty?
Interesting, trying to do a little research. So far Sandisk Extreme is the only CF card I can find that lists operating temperature ranges.

Durable Design
"SanDisk Extreme CompactFlash Memory Cards are designed to handle whatever life throws at you. This card is backed by rigorous stress, shock, and vibration testing procedures and includes RTV silicone coating for added protection against shock and vibration. It also operates in nearly any climate, with a functioning temperature range of -13 to 185 degrees Fahrenheit."
I think they should take a little off the top and add to the bottom...
Oh wait, here's a Kingston Ultimate CompactFlash card
>>Operating Temperature 32°F to 140°F (0°C to 60°C)
>>Storage Temperature -4°F to 185°F (-20°C to 85°C)
And Hoodman Steel CompactFlash
Operating Temp: (0°C-70°C) or (32°F-158°F)
Storage Temp: (-25°C-85°C)
I think there's a pattern here...
Maybe a Transcend "Industrial Grade" card? Might be slower, but a wiser choice when it's below zero.
Wide-range operating temperature: -40ºC (-40°F) to 85ºC (185°F)
