Default why does my basement cold water pipe only rattle during cold weather?

I thought I had fixed this problem last winter but now it's back
again. When water is turned off upstairs the cold water pipe rattles
against the drywall. It started happening the same time last year. It
seems that when the outside temp falls down to the 40s and 30s is the
only time it happens. Does the ground being colder have something to
do with the water being heavier?
