Thanks Gizmo & Walleye.  I have the smoker on a stand on the south side of the house, protected from above by the house eaves.  I have not found the wind to be much of a factor, but I would expect that it could have an effect if it were to be blowing like I recall when I grew up in Humboldt. 
what can't be smoked can't be eaten

I live up in calgary, Alberta and I just got the 4 rack digital bradley over Christmas (nice present) and have smoked salmon in it so far. It was around -10 celcius (around 14 Farenheit) and haven't any problems keeping the temperatures up. From a few other people I have talked to it shouldn't be a problem keeping the temperatures up, as long as you open the door as few times as possible in the colder weather. It is a great machine. I plan on doing chicken breasts and baby back ribs next.
