I brought some pieces inside, let them stabilize, and glued them up. These particular pieces will be used in the shop. The glue reaches strength in 24 hours, (tightbond III). Can I move it to the cold in 24 hours, or should I wait longer?
Thanks.
I tried not believing. That did not work, so now I just believe

I think you are good to go. I use Tite Bond a lot and 24 hours is plenty at room temp.

The SO asked me today, "what are you going to do to day"? I said "nothing". She said, "that's what you did yesterday"! Me, "Yes love, but I was not finished yet"!!!!!!!!

You're good. The key to successful glue bonding in cold temp is to make sure the pieces and glue are above 55 degrees and then stay above 55 for at least 12 hours after they are joined.. Cold pieces and warm glue won't bond well.
