Do bike tires increase pressure in summer? - eviltoast

I know bike tires will lose pressure in colder seasons because the air temp causes the pressure to drop, but is the inverse true? Does bike tire pressure go up in summer due to heat?

If so, do I need to deflate the tires a bit in summer? Do bike tires ever explode because of a temperature change?

    We have a couple of bikes in our garage. In Australian summers it gets to a minimum of 50°c in there. No explosions to date.
