I plan on spraying from the side bump strips down on both sides. Would I be ok to do this outside in the temperature it is roughly outside now? I have some time off over xmas so want to try and do it then.

No, there's too much moisture in the air for a good finish.

I was thinking that, would I be ok to prep and prime? Ive got a few rust spots on the sills thats all.

if you prep and prime now you'll just have to do it again after christmas when it's finally dried out might just be worth waiting pal

If you put rattle cans in hot water for 10 min before you spray it works better too. In this cold the paint is just going to ripple I found that out last winter that was a pain in the a**e.
