Well, I've seen 61-64F being recommended for storage of cigars and have read that some HK collectors prefer temps around there as the cigars age more gracefully. So at 62 F you should be laughing.

Consensus appears to be that the lower end of this range (16ºC - 61ºF) is the ideal target, as higher temperature is the more critical concern.

70/70 is an old wive's tale.
