Do You Smoke More Or Less In Fall And Winter?

[mso489]

I think I may smoke a little more in the fall and winter because I am indoors more where I do most of my smoking, but it seems like a minor difference. Any one else have major swings in the number of bowls smoked over the various seasons?

 

[spartacus]

No, I am about the same amount of bowls but my taste seem to change, I gravitate more towards Latakia blends in the winter and Va - Va/Per in the summer.

I guess I'm odd that way!

Nothing major. A little less in Winter, as that's our rainy season, and I smoke mostly outdoors.

 

[anotherbob]

more cause I like being outside then.

Same as any other time of year.

Same here, pretty much. I will add that I've only in the past year or so gotten into cigars, but the trend is developing that I'll smoke more cigars in the summer and more pipes in the other seasons. Something about the heat and humidity just make cigars seem a good fit.

Being in Phoenix that's the only time of the year it's even tolerable outside. So more.

Same here. In Florida it’s almost intolerable to light a pipe outside in the summertime. Also, VaPer and Aro’s in the summer and English (Latakia) in the winter.

In the winter especially January/February I smoke much less and sometimes go days at a time without. I can’t smoke indoors and when it hits -20c it’s very hard to justify sitting outside for 45 minutes.

I will find out this year. I took up pipe smoking in spring of 2017 and gave up (took a break) in fall of 2017. Started again in summer of 2019

Similar to @lawdawg, I tend to be cigar heavy in Summer and more pipe oriented in the other seasons. This year I smoked my pipes more over the Summer than ever before - and it was a very hot Summer in NC, but overall I’m smoking more of both than I have in quite a few years.

I smoke the same all year round as I smoke inside all the time. Life is good.

 

[seldom]

As an outdoor smoker my pipe smoking is less in winter. For that matter my pipe smoking is less when it is windy. Probably I'd not smoke a pipe at all if I lived in Wyoming!

 

[trouttimes]

About the same year round.

I smoke the same all year round as I smoke inside all the time. Life is good.

Same here.

More by far. In fact, this is one of the first years in about a decade of pipe smoking that I’ve soldiered on through the summer. Y’all are a bad influence on mepuf

I’m very curious to see how this holds up over time, since I’ve always lived in the American South, but am moving to Colorado next year, where summer temperatures are much milder.

 

[sablebrush52]

I live in SoCal. What is this Fall and Winter of which you speak?

 

[didimauw]

This would have been a good thread for a POLL haha

I smoke more in fall, and probably less in winter.

 

[ukbob]

Same all year round here.
