Same here, I've noticed it's creeping up slowly and that's the only variable that has changed. Still winter in Chicago, except for today, little nicer but temperatures around 30-35 up until today.

How do you update?

It's a recall - well, technically a "service campaign". Free at the dealer. You'll receive a letter, or you can check your VIN on Toyota's site. Oddly, this campaigned is suspended for now.
It's discussed with more details here : http://www.corollaforum.com/threads/most-of-us-probably-have-a-recall-cvt.7492/

Suspended, not cancelled (so far). Intriguing news for those who already had the update done.

Makes you wonder why is what suspended? I didn't have time to get mine in before it did.

Keep in mind mpg is better when it's warmer, so given the time frame it could be the temperature rising that gave you better mileage.
