Does cold weather cause tire sensors to come on?

Cold weather can decrease the tire pressure causing the tire pressure sensors to trip the low pressure light. Adjust tire pressure in all tires as soon as possible to put out the light. If you adjust the tire pressures and the light remains on after a short drive, you may have other issues such as a faulty sensor. The sensors are battery operated and the battery only last just so long.

Does it matter how many cold cranking amps a car battery has?

Yes, that is how you know that the battery is "strong" enough to start your car in cold weather. A battery in warm weather may have enough amps to start the car fine, but in cold weather, it wouldn't be able to crank it fast enough. A car battery efficiency drops off the colder it gets.
