Definitely look the struts over closely, make sure none leaking.
Run the ACC self-check, make sure everything working correctly.
Regarding 0W- vs 10W-, the multi-viscous oil is only going to react to existing conditions. I'm not that knowledgeable on the issue, but why should that stop me?
Let's say the oil "acts" like a 0W at 0F, and like a 10W at 15F. You're not seeing those temps any of the year, but the 0W isn't hurting you any. Could you probably do just fine (or even just as well) with a 10W- instead of a 0W-, probably.
