So it is currently -10°F (-22°C) in good ole Colorado. Anyone else try their luck at a smoke and decide it was not worth it? I went out, and thought a Boli PC would be great, but I was only met with freezing pain and an inability to light my lighter. 

Wow US and and Canada. COLD!!! 🥶

This is the fastest clearing river in California. I don't think it'll be fishable for a while 😵‍💫

It was -9°F yesterday when I lit up my N1 with a cup of coffee. Garage heater is a key to happiness my friend. I had it at 70°F yesterday for football and cigars and I turn it down to 50°F overnight in this weather just so cans or bottles that are out there don't bust open.

Up until January 6 there was no snow at all in Montreal with temperature between 0° and 4° Celsius. Since January 7 we had to snowstorm leaving over 30 Cm of snow and temperature is around -7° Celsius during the day. I will probably not smoke outside until April at best but most likely somewhere in May.

Ok tough guy, so how did the US get on the imperial system?  Miles, yards, quarts, gallons, pounds...those ideas didn't spring out of nowhere. 😁

True. But times. They a'movin on. We're stuck in a transitional phase here though. We clearly don't know where we want to be.

"Warmed" up to -2° C today in coastal British Columbia. Best part, no wind. Sitting in my outside shelter with a heater and doing fine with a RASS. Ok, not as pleasant as smoking it in Cuba, but have to make do.

The amazing part is that I was taught the metric system in grammar school and middle school. High School and beyond, only in science class. Why it hasn't taken hold here is beyond me. It certainly is easier to know that a kilometer is 1000 meters rather than a mile being 1760 yards. I don't know who's lobbying for the imperial system to remain. It seems to me that the US would have leapt at the opportunity to get off a measurement system related to the British Empire; but there is no indication that will ever happen.

It got down real close to 60° F here on Maui over the weekend. I had to put socks on to keep from getting frostbite. :lol3:

I've gotten too soft in my middle age for those types of sub-zero temps! Been there done that, not any more.

I really don't know how you folks do it. I have a cast iron Vermont Casting stove outside for when it's 45F-60F and no wind. Anything below that and I go into my heated shop with the extraction fans on. Even with that I get a shiver here and there and it kills the enjoyment. I can not even imagine being outside when it's single digits F or below, let alone smoke a cigar.
