If playing only with other wind instruments (a band, a quintet, etc.), the same phenomenon is occuring with their instruments, so the need to adjust because of temperature is not dire.

If playing also with stringed instruments, the OPPOSITE thing is happening. That's why professional orchestras have a temperature clause in most of their contracts. Otherwise, it's obviously easier for the strings to retune (which they do anyway)...assuming the temperature, though above normal, is staying constant.
