Mushy clutch anyone?

Howdy!

My FJC is about 6 months old now, and so far it's been a great rig. Yesterday morning, I went to start it up and the thermometer registered 26F. Brrrr!!! As I put it in gear and started to back out the driveway, the clutch pedal was, for lack of a better word, "mushy". There was a good half second delay in releasing the clutch, and the pedal actually moving. Once the rig warmed up all the way, the clutch became more responsive, but it definitely doesn't like the cold. Today was more of the same (and a balmy 22F). Anyone else have this problem?

Nope. But it hasn't gotten below 6ish C, which is about 43 F.

One piece of information I forgot to mention: My rig lives outside, not in a garage or carport. When I say it's 22F, I mean it's 22F inside the rig too!
