Default Orchids, cold, and watering

We're going through a bit of a cold snap with temperatures getting into the high 20s and low 30s (fahrenheit) at night and only reaching the low 60s during the day. I've been putting everyone but the Cymbidiums in the garage at night but they're probably still seeing 40s in there. A lot of them are due for watering. Is it better if they stay on the dry side? Should I water as normal? Or, does the answer depend on the species in question?

I have an assortment: Cymbidiums, my super Phalaenopsis (I have 3 that don't seem phased so far, all the others had to come back inside), Zygopetalum, Zygonisia, Paphiopedalum, Dendrobium nobilis type, Aliceara, Bratonia, Oncidium, and several other intergenerics.
