Ok, so I've been set up in the basement printing all summer and it's been great. I don't want the cold weather to slow my roll, so anybody got any advice? The space isn't heated directly, it's under the house so it won't freeze. All of my chemicals & ink are just kinda sitting on the shelves etc...
Also, I'm drying my screens in a dark box with no heat source. Is the cold weather gonna booger that up for me? Am I just going to be blowing emulsion snot rockets across the lawn three nights a week?
Granted, I'm in Alabama so my idea of cold weather is like 20 degrees on the coldest night of the year...

You'll be totally fine.
I've been printing in a drafty building with minimal heat for fifteen years... in Chicago. It gets ass cold in here.
Decreased humidity actually means that many things work better in the winter. Paper will distort less and acclimate more quickly. Your screens will dry just as fast.
