As a rule of thumb, air pressure in tires incraase about one psi for a temperature increase of 10 degrees F.
Tire pressure should be set when cold. That is such as first thing in the morning or when the tires have not been running for at least 3 hours. The settings specified assume an ambient temperature of about 72 deg F.
If the air temp you have is different, you can make a calculation such as: if ambient temperature is 52 deg F, reduce your pressure by 2 psi.

So, what happens if a tire is deflated a little bit?

Absolutely, not fine and very dangerous advice. Never, ever deflate a hot tire because the pressure increases due to driving. If it is hot and you are carrying a heavy load at high speed, the solution is to slow down. Even then expect high pressure during highway driving in hot weather.

My 80 pis tire went to 125psi just going from 80 degrees to 115 degree climate. This was combo of ambient temps and the heat generated from driving - mostly heat from driving with a lot of weight on the tires.
It is smart to check psi in this situation, but a warm tire would not need to be deflated back to the cold psi rating (in this case 80), rather something around 100 would be fine. .....
