Too hot...

[mannyCA]

Here in California's central valley the temps have been up into the 110 degree mark, I don't know about anyone else but its just too hot to enjoy a good pipe while sweating like a slave either outside or in the garage, even at 10pm it can still be 90 degrees or so. Today wasn't bad, only got to 96.

Lived there done that! I lived in Visalia and the weather is so uncomfortable in the summer you just want to die. Even with a pool I had there it is unbearable. I wouldn't live there in the summer period. My head hurts just thinking about how hot it gets there.

Ouch that sucks. It can get pretty hot here sometimes, but it's usually the humidity that gets you. Leads to many wet smokes. Luckily for me it's been pretty mild summer here

I hear ya! I live in northern Cal. around San Fran. and its been pretty damn hot the past few weeks.

However! I was living out in South Dakota, where in the summer it did get into the 100's but the winters!!!!! Holy hell!!!! It regularly got 10-50 below zero with 30-50 mph winds. Theres NO WAY your gonna enjoy a smoke out there for at least 2-3 months outta the year.

My condolences to those that live in the Midwest. I'll gladly take the hot Cali sun!

I'll be going back to the Philippines once my job is done here in Ak. I'm wondering how the heat/humidity will affect my smoking since I won't be able to dry out my tobacco as much as I like. Thank God for Savinelli pipes and balsa filters.

I know where you're coming from. Florida gets too hot and sticky to lounge around outside smoking...at least for a Pennsylvania transplant like me. I use to really enjoy an outdoor smoke back in PA...now I'm pretty much relegated to indoor smoking, at least during the summer months.

Hmmmmm, it'll propbably top out at about 70 here in good old Canada today. Think I will need my smoking sweater! Too babd the baccy costs a fortune!!

We've had a mild summer here in Wisconsin. Currently it is 65 degrees outside. Unheard of for this time of year. Otherwise, if it's unbareably hot and sticky outside, I find a good cigar to be soothing.

Ay man if you think you have bad. I'm probably in one of the hottest spots in the Sates. I live in the Coachella valley. Its 110 right now and its been that hot and higher for the past two weeks. Last Friday it was 116 outside!

Wow yeah that's just way TOO hot! I'm in So Cal and have another place near Kingman, AZ in the mountains at 5600' so the elevation keeps the summer temps moderate (90's usually for highs in summer). I don't like excessive heat I'm the first one to tell you. But humidity is even worse, so if I had to choose I'll take the high desert here in the southwest.

I can relate to that. I moved here in Eastern Oregon from Louisiana; the temperature's about the same, but the humidity really makes a difference. Plus, it cools down at night here nicely.

Man, I sweated my ass off tonight trying to make it on one bowl. It was still 100 @ 9;00pm!
