Winter hiatus

this will actually be my first cigar winter. been into pipes for a while before now, so i usually smoke those fine in the winter. easy to start and stop. winter will be harder now though with cigars and living in NH. Damn cold and i can only smoke pipes inside.

I slow down in the winter, but that is when I do most of my buying for next cigar smoking season. ( I can't wait to move to FL)

Almost 90 here today. And I smoke inside anyways, so I dont think I will slow down a whole lot.

I don't slow down but I go to my winter rotation of shorter smokes.

Instead of spending 1 1/2 hours or more on Robustos, Churchills, Lonsdales and whatnot, I move to PC's, Panetelas, Demi Tasse, and so on.

I kinda look forward to the change of pace.

I haven't smoked a cigar in about 3 weeks. I really don't like the cold. My smoking goes down to 1-2 a month in the winter, from 3-4 a week in the summer.

Unfortunately it has already started.... the slowdown that is.

Right now it is somewhat bearable as it is only in the 40's at night when I usually relax on the back deck with one.

November will take it down to one or two a week, and the bitter cold of December, January, and February will take it down to just a few a month.
Smoking in zero and below zero temps SUX!!!

We don't have to much cold weather in Dallas . When it gets to cold I just go in thr garage with the heater and smoke.So to answer your question my smoking habits don't change much threw out the year.

I smoke less and smoke smaller cigars when I do. I usually tend to buy more as well.

I live in Minnesota, so outdoor smoking is definitely limited in the cooler weather. I'll occasionally smoke in the garage if it's not too cold, but that's not really very nice. I'll also sometimes smoke while ice fishing, because then I'm dressed for being in the cold. Otherwise I'll visit a B&M sometimes.

In the winter I still buy at my usual pace, but smoke only my small cigars. This means my collection grows by leaps and bounds during the winter months. When it is not raining I like to enjoy a nice smoke, but I tend to stick with the short smokes because I can't take the cold.

smoke more DCs and Churchills in the winter... yeah it sucks to live in So*Cal

you can have the warm weather in cali i moved out of there three years ago i smoke my cigars and pipes in doors so the cold weather dont bug me

definitely more smoking in the doors. more B&M's, bars, etc. all do i do enjoy a cold night with a some hot tea and a cigar once in awhile. i guess we'll see how cold its going to be this season.
