I'll give my version of my short answer: in hot weather and on hot pavement, tire pressure will go up sometimes as much as 5 psi per tire. The tire is very unlikely to pop because of that.

But, riding on real roads, there is never any need to get within 5 psi of that highest pressure rating anyway; You can look at charts like the in this article to pick a reasonable tire pressure for your weight and tire size and not come close to those max ratings.
