I have smoked when it was darn near 0 out. It is not as easy to do but it can be done. Used a wind break and it helps alot.
 
Many smokers run fine in the cold, they may require more tending because of higher fuel consumption...Gasser's and Watt Burners...Not so much...JJ

Clarification: Gasser's and Watt Burners, don't need as much tending...But they work fine at lower temps especially with a Welders Blanket or other insulator...JJ

Before I insulated my gas GOSM I could smoke at 225-250 until it got down to 25 (with a windscreen).  Lower than that and I couldn't keep the temp high enough.
