5w or 10w

Hey, I brought my civic back in Nov. and I am about to change the oil. On my oil cap it says 5w, but I thought that is only if you live in places like Alaska. If i put 10w when it asks for 5, will it screw it up? I live in CT where it can get cold but i dont think i need 5w. Also I will be putting synthetic in my car. what do you suggest.
thanx
