Default tire pressure for winters?

Just checked after putting winter tires on and they were all over the map...from 31 to 38. I'm putting them at 40psi for now and see how that feels.

I run 40psi, then air down if the snow gets bad, air back up when the snow clears up.

I didn't see that coming. I'd always thought pressures should go down 2 - 3 psi for the winter.
