What's Too Cold
 

With the weather getting cold, at what temp do you stop smoking out side. For me it would have to be in the low 60s.

Re: What's To Cold
 

I sometimes brave the 5os with my heater on the porch, but not often.

Re: What's To Cold
 

I smoke in my basement, so I don't smoke outside unless it's perfect out or I am at a herf.

Re: What's To Cold
 

Trying to decide if I will burn one tonight, supposed to be 10 degrees.
Maybe the garage door stays closed?
Ken, get that lounge built!!!

Re: What's To Cold
 

My beer froze on me last Friday, I guess it was about 15ish. Probably 0.

Re: What's To Cold
 

I love that you stop in the 40's. What you call cold, we call home.

Re: What's To Cold
 

Just figured if you will below 40, it doesn't matter!!!:r:r

Re: What's To Cold
 

i was thinking the same. i usually stop when it gets below 30, depending on how im feeling and what kind of clothes i'm wearing

Re: What's To Cold
 

When the temp drops below the mid 60's I move the the garage and plug in the heaters...

Re: What's To Cold
 

Mid 30's is warm here right now. That's about the threshold for me. Anything below freezing, and I don't enjoy the smoke as much.

+1

Re: What's To Cold
 

I am stuck smoking in the cold Larry, only option for me :td

Re: What's To Cold
 

For an outside smoke...better be at least above 32 degrees. :D

Re: What's To Cold
 

+2

Re: What's To Cold
 

If it gets below 20 or so, or if the wind is blowing and the weather is inclement, I just go in my Princess Party Shack (it doubles as a kids playhouse in the summer and has a small princess table and chairs in it, in addition to the regular sized chairs and table that I put in it. It was dubbed whilst drunk, and the name stuck)

Re: What's To Cold
 

Leave it to someone from Florida to refer to what northerners still consider short sleeve shirt temps outside to believe it's now time to go inside. :r

Oh well, I envy you. I'm hoping a relocation to the Orlando area is in my 5 year plan.

Re: What's To Cold
 

Never too cold. Probably won't see above the 30s until the mid to end of February. I just duck into the garage. Even with the garage door all the way up, (since my wife thinks the smoke will otherwise travel into the house) it's a little better than standing outside.

Re: What's To Cold
 

Too cold is so cold that you can't bundle up enough against it to stay warm. At that point, the tobacco would probably freeze ahead of the cherry and it would be hard to keep it lit.

That's about it.

Re: What's To Cold
 

I just tried to smoke a diesel, but it is about 23 degrees out and a nice steady wind... just couldnt enjoy it. that and i dropped the damn stickk adn it landed on the cherry splitting the wrapper... I used that as an excuse to put it out and come in and thaw.

Re: What's To Cold
 

I like the colder weather, but move inside to the man cave when it's gets that low.:r

Re: What's To Cold
 

Today 16 degrees is too cold, but I was smoking this past week and it was in the low 30's.....so Larry, you sir are a WIMP! :fu2

Re: What's To Cold
 

Since moving to NC I have become a big p*ssy when it comes to cold. I voted for 50s and even that is pushing it.:r. Meanwhile back in NY the snow would be flying and my @ss would be outside enjoying one. Fortunately, there are still plenty of warm days here in the winter and usually January and beginning of Feb is the worst of it and than it starts getting warm again by mid to late Feb.

Re: What's To Cold
 

Low 60s with no sun, 50s with sun.

Re: What's Too Cold
 

Yeah I can do 50s if it isn't too windy. I smoke about 10,000% fewer cigars in the winter. If it's cold and/or windy I feel like there's no chance that it'll be relaxing. What then would be the point of smoking a cigar? I need to go to Icehog's basement:D

Re: What's Too Cold
 

Upper/mid 40's is pretty much my limit, and at that point I'm pretty bundled up and probably have a log going in the little fire pit.

If it gets colder than that, I'll go find a casino to light one up in. The nice thing about Vegas is you're never more than 15 minutes from a cigar friendly casino. :ss

Re: What's Too Cold
 

I have smoked outside in the middle of the night when it was -17 degrees. I love the winter and it is never too cold for a good cigar. Of course I prefer spring and fall weather.

Mostly it depends on the mood I am in and how much clothing I want to put on. It is never too cold though.

Re: What's Too Cold
 

If I see more of my breath than smoke its too cold. But my wife seems not to mind it as long as she is downstairs.
Its going in the cellar with the temps.

Re: What's Too Cold
 

Well because of my wife and kids, there is no temp too cold. All you have to do is jump in your ford explorer with a warm coat. You will be fine.

Re: What's Too Cold
 

I can put on a snowmobile suit and smoke in any weather as long as the cigar doesn't crack. We are tougher here in MA than the cigars at times.:D

Re: What's Too Cold
 

Below 50*, No Smoke, No Golf!:D:tu

Re: What's Too Cold
 

I will have to admit, I am surprised by some of the responses. We have some dedicated inmates here in the Asylum!!!!!

Re: What's Too Cold
 

More Than Me!:D :r

Re: What's Too Cold
 

Its not because we are dedicated more then other inmates. We are kept in the basement we are that crazy.:bdh

Re: What's Too Cold
 

I don't smoke outside if it's 50 degrees or colder. But I have to open the window, so the breeze makes it so I have to bundle up anyways lol

Re: What's Too Cold
 

If it's windy out and below freezing, I'll head to the garage. The family doesn't care for that so I'll keep it to something short if possible. But the choices listed by Larry were obviously made by our friends to the south. :r

Re: What's Too Cold
 

Usually below 40 degrees for me. But if I am going to be outside anyway, I'll smoke no matter how cold. It's been anywhere from 24 to 50 here, while duck hunting, and I smoke one each time I go out.

Re: What's Too Cold
 

The crawl space under one end of my house,about 15'x15', is on the downhill side. It's been dug out and cinder blocked. I have to duck my head a little but with a heater and a 32" TV with cable, it works for me. I hate the cold. I go down there when it gets below 60F or above 80F(stays much cooler in the summer.) I call it The Dungeon.

Re: What's Too Cold
 

I think this is just a fire hazard. I want one you are sooo lucky.:dr:banger

Re: What's Too Cold
 

It is in the teens right now but I am smoking in my garage with the door closed only my feet are cold. I am wearing a fleece zip up with a jacket on over that, not as bad as I thought it was gonna be. I opened the door for a minute but that quickly ended!

Re: What's Too Cold
 

Smoked in a blizzard last year, temp was 28F. Today was 25 so I smoked in the basement.

Re: What's Too Cold
 

Its never to cold for me to step outside (-20 to +35 degrees year round at work for me), Wind is my only factor.

Re: What's Too Cold
 

Had a little backyard Herf, today with a small fire!:tu

Re: What's Too Cold
 

40 degrees however if there is a heater..Smoke 'em if you got 'em :tu

Re: What's Too Cold
 

If this was Ashecliffe, we'd be in Ward C.

Re: What's Too Cold
 

I am sure people will have their opinion. When I am at home on the Gulf Coast 50 degrees unless I have a good fire going. The cold there gets to your bones and there is no way to get warm. Two nights ago had one on the balcony at 23 degrees and a light snowfall and no heater.

Humidity , wind , and all that other weather stuff play a big factor to me.

Re: What's Too Cold
 

I can tell you live in Florida. I need a 30, 20, and 10 option to even begin to think about the question. If it is below 20 I'm smoking something short.

Re: What's Too Cold
 

LOL! It is kinda funky down there. Cool thing is I can drop ashes and spit on the floor!
