Phoenix Summers are like North East Winters...Miserable
 

It is just too damn miserable to smoke! I know I tease a lot in the winters about how its 70 here and I am smoking. I apologize! It is just too damn hot to smoke here. It is now past midnight and its still over 90. Yuck!

I need a smoking room! I am not going to pay a local B&M for smoking rights in their club.

At least in the winter you can get a kerosene or propane heater and heat your garage...cooling a garage out here would cost a small fortune.

At least your heat is dry. Sitting on the Chesapeake Bay it's 94 with about 90% humididty sometimes. We all need to just move to Hawaii!

Tell me about it...I lived there for 13 years...so now I'm in Florida...yesterday's temp was 93F...with humidity it made it feel like 103F and thats what registered on outside thermometers...how the hell do ya go out to smoke a cigar or pipe in that kinda heat?

It's been hot as hell here in NC this past week. Even at night it's been sticky. Sat outside with a Cain F last night and went back inside afterward and my shirt was actually damp. I hear you on the heat though as I have been craving a cigar all week but the heat during the day is just intolerable to sit outside and smoke. Finally broke down last night and waited for the sun to set.

I hope to trade positions sometime in the next few years. Come endure 40+ Chicago and Detroit winters and you will know what I mean. ;)

I feel ya. TX summers are the same way. Walk outside and just moments later you are coated in sweat.

Re: Phoenix Summers are like North East Winters...Miserable
 

I am playing the world's smallest violin. It is payback for the nice winters you all have ;) :r

I would love to not have to put on 20 layers of clothing to smoke a cigar in the winter :tu

Pretty hot here in Florida lately too.:tu

Re: Phoenix Summers are like North East Winters...Miserable
 

I always tell the GF...In the winter you can bundle up and eventually get warm but in the heat you'd strip down and still be sweating unless you find AC.

Re: Phoenix Summers are like North East Winters...Miserable
 

Living in south tx i know how you feel,i think yesterday we hit around 102deg.

Re: Phoenix Summers are like North East Winters...Miserable
 

Forget that...I wouldn't leave my house.

I usually smoke at night during the summer. It's nice and cool but the bugs can be a pain. I'm using a fan for now, but the Mosquito Magnet is coming on board soon. :tu

The DFW area of Texas is the worst...because we have crazy hot, humid summers, and bitter cold, windy winters. There are about 3-4 months total that you can sit outside and really enjoy the weather :p

My parents are moving to Hawaii in August. I'm seriously considering following them out there, haha. Temps around the 80's year round with a nice sea breeze blowing constantly? Yesplz.

Just bought a bug zapper myself a couple weeks ago. That zzzzzzzzztttt sounds always brings a smile to my face.:D

Re: Phoenix Summers are like North East Winters...Miserable
 

A dry heat? My oven has a dry heat and I am not sticking my head in there......

Re: Phoenix Summers are like North East Winters...Miserable
 

Please post pics of the bug zapper .... j/k

I agree with kgoings I usually like to enjoy a smoke on the golf course but its even too hot to hit the white ball this time of year.

Re: Phoenix Summers are like North East Winters...Miserable
 

I hear ya bro. I have been getting up about 5AM so I can get in a smoke before the heat. At least I have shade most of the day on the patio, not so bad if I stay out of the sun directly and just sit and smoke. Another nice thing, no bugs. I am from WI and I'll take this anytime.

Would one of those suits they wear on the moon work? LOL.

Re: Phoenix Summers are like North East Winters...Miserable
 

5am? That's dedication right there!:r:banger

Re: Phoenix Summers are like North East Winters...Miserable
 

Agreed the shade does make a huge difference and if you have a pool even better :r
