I also seem to have Raynaud's. Never been diagnosed. But my fingers are cold and will remain cold for a while after handling cold items. Only my fingers, though, not so much my toes. No color changes, yet.
Yes, it could anticipate the onset of scleroderma before the person realizes this. A good article on it:

A person I know has just been diagnosed with localized scleroderma. The sister has Raynaud's. My friend had systemic scleroderma. I hadn't realized that there were two kinds of it. Not something to fool around with when one gets any of it.
