Mine has occasional issues when it is cold out. Probably moisture trapped in the system and as the Frat Man said, can't vent. Sometimes we all need to vent.

What it most likely is is moisture in the system and the cold weather has frozen the vent solenoid in the compressor in the closed position. I would try to find a warm garage for it to sit in for a few hours and see if that helps (if you can) to allow the moisture to thaw a bit to allow the vent solenoid to become unfrozen.
