I pretty much only smoke outside reading, and below 50 degrees F my hands get cold. I don't like hot sticky weather, but relaxing in a swinging chair, I tolerate it much better than subzero stuff.

I loved living in the islands where the coldest winter night was in the low 60's. But having developed my smoking in climes north, I just didn't care for the smoke in those conditions.I live for warm weather. Winter curtails my pipe smoking considerably, even though I have a comfortable workshop to use out of the weather. I love being on our patio, in shorts, t-shirt and no shoes.
I'm willing to admit it may be the lack of selection on my part. I typically stick with one or two blends and don't experiment. I will try some lighter options!Smoke a pipe all year round. I don’t smoke English or Latakia blends often. And Virginias, VaPers & Burley blends are favored in Spring & Summer months for me. I’ll smoke a cigar more often in the warmer months, especially on the ️ course. ️
I'm also in the PNW and I smoke year round. Heat's on in the winter and AC in the summer, so it makes little difference.Title edited for caps. Please see rule 9.
I live in the Pacific Northwest. Smoking my pipes has always been a cool weather activity for me. Moving to the tropics years ago is why I quit... just too warm. Back home these last few years and starting to dabble again.
Ah, I don't smoke inside, so that's the thing here. Otherwise, I'm with you on that.I'm also in the PNW and I smoke year round. Heat's on in the winter and AC in the summer, so it makes little difference.
Wouldn't that be the best thing to hit the news in a very long time!Unless the weather man says there won't be any weather tomorrow, I'm going to smoke my pipe.
You know what? It may be the humidity that I'm thinking of. I went from the PNW to the Florida Keys, and then to the Caribbean. I bet that was the real issue for me.When I was in TN, I didn't smoke until after dark in the summer. Even then, some nights, the heat and humidity were just too miserable to do it.
