That sounds about right for what I've heard. The yellows will get you by in the cold, but you're going to see accelerated rotor wear and deposits, and not get the same braking performance they'd give you when hot.

Personally, I'd just run the Greenstuffs, and keep a set of yellows on the workbench for trackdays.
