    I wouldn't worry about 10f anyways, unless you filled up in Florida.
    Especially if you added antigel.
    In colder

    IF the station you filled at treats you should be good for at least -10 to -20. Untreated fuel with the additive you put in you should be fine.

    Fueled in NY and treated it.......Good to go man!
    Usually just buying fuel in northern states you are fine with temps dropping around or below zero.

    Anything below i70 probably not....

    Troy Illinois pilot is not for example.

    Best thing to do is ask the manager.

    As long as you buy from a quality vendor the fuel will be treated for that regions climate. And fyi, pilot/flying j is not a quality vendor. If you must fuel at them you should put in additives.
