05 clutch howl when cold

Hi Everybody,

Sometimes when it's below freezing out my clutch howls as I engage/disengage it slowly.

For example, the car will be warm enough to heat the cab and it will be 24 degrees F out. I'll downshift from third to second and slowly release the clutch to decrease speed to come to a stop at a sign or light, etc. While the clutch is doing its thing I hear a loud howl.

The car has 34k miles, and this only happens when it's below freezing out. Can the throw berring freeze or something?
