Default Smoking in the wintertime

I'm getting depressed right now because I've collected a humidor and coolidor full of delicious sticks, but the weather has turned too cold to enjoy any of them outside! For those in northern states, what do y'all do to keep on smoking through the cold months?

I'm lucky enough to have a B&M that has an amazing smoking lounge pretty close to my house. I don't get to smoke as much as I would like, but when I do, I get to hang out with a bunch of guys who enjoy cigars as much as I do. Also, if you have a garage you can get a space heater and smoke in there.

Same here. If it goes too many days of frigid temps, I just head down to the local lounge and torch up.

I do not live in the norther states but I am a total wuss when it comes to the cold. I would smoke in the garage right next to a space heater and cover myself with a throw blanket. Oh and you are probably going to need a drink to further your relaxation and to add some more warmth.

This is pretty much my method. Minus the throw blanket, I just get on a sweatshirt and some gloves. If it's the weekend I might get lucky and it'll be nice enough in the sun, but lately around here it's been under 20 degrees and it's just too cold for me to be outside. Unfortunately the nearest indoor lounge is about 75 miles away from me, so that's not really an option.

Default Re: Smoking in the wintertime

All good advice here and I don't want to repeat what has already been said but another way is do you smoke in your car? Before the baby I would smoke in my car often especially in the cooler months and in the Winter when I would have running around to do I would just grab a couple smaller sized sticks and head out the door. If you turn your heat to the floor vent and put it on med to high with just the drivers window cracked an inch or so the smoke freight trains straight out of the window. Even if I had no errands to run I would just go for a drive to burn one when it was too cold for the garage or outside and I didn't want to be out for a few hours plus by going to the lounge.

Find a B&M, Baileys/Fox & Hound, or grab a heater for the garage/shed.

Yes, I am fortunate to have a nice B&M with a lounge nearby, but that really restricts when I can have a smoke. I shouldn't complain, I guess. At least, I have access to one!

I'll have to find a good space heater for the garage. Do you put a fan in the window to suck out the smoke, too?

I put a coat on. A hat and gloves are also necessary sometimes. I also have decided that my car is a perfectly reasonable place to smoke a stick. It doesn't need to be moving, but it has a radio, which is good.
