My LCD display also had some problems this morning running @ 1.5F... It seems like it logged the whole trip, it's just that the LCD was not displaying well.

I've noticed my LCD going dim at cold temps as well. Usually it starts in the low-teens F. They just don't like the cold. Unless the battery is marginal, it doesn't effect the computer's operation. If the battery is old, as others have said, you could have issues.
I haven't had anything strange happen to my MTB or roadie since it started getting really cold.
