No 5W30 in an 850? Even when it's -30F every morning? 850

I live in Vermont. Winter mornings are usually -20 or colder for months at a time.

In my 240s I'd use 5W30 and switch to 10W30 for summer.

I've seen Klaus say here several times not to use 5W30.

So ... 10W30 year round? Even when it's -30F for that whole week in Feb, when the 2 PM temp reading is all the way up to -2F? It seems so cold that 10W30 has the consistency of yogurt.
