How bad are summer tires in "cold" but no snow?

My experience with driving summer only tires (Kumho Ecsta 712) in cold conditions is that traction is adequate (although slightly impaired) down to 30°F, as long as the pavement is clear and dry. However, ANY amount of frozen precipitation (even a heavy frost) on the road makes driving dangerous. YMMV.
