R56 CEL due to battery voltage?

CEL due to battery voltage?
As with many other folks, I was privileged to endure the recent ice storm in DFW [aka, Mother Earth presents Texans on Ice]. My 08' R56 lives outside, and it stayed put for several days while the roads thawed. Several days into the ice, I started it to help thaw things out. I fully expected my battery to be somewhat weak. For some reason, my car has never played nice when the temperature drops below freezing [this battery is ~24 months old and the previous battery had the same symptom]. The car fired up despite the weak battery. However, it immediately threw a CEL. It took awhile to warm up and settle down, but it appears to run fine otherwise.
Would a weak battery throw a CEL?
I have yet to run the codes on it to see if anything registered.
