Default Tire pressure low/off after carwash

Any idea how that would logistically happen? it was at 50.2 before, went through carwash, then it alerted me air was at 39.5, which is has continuously stayed out for the past day, and overnight it went back up to 40.2

I need new tires but I'm starting my move/drive across the country today so wanted to wait til I got to California to order new tires.

I've ran the car through this automated car wash at least 10 times since owning it with no issues.

Just coincidental timing?

Ya run through the car wash and the cold water lowers your tire temps and in turn lowers the internal air pressure of the tire...Same happens overnight.
