Short periods at temps in mid 70's is no big deal, but keep an eye on the smokes in case beetles start popping. If you don't want to invest in a climate controlled humidor, then a few precautions will save you some grief. I highly recommend keeping a separate quarantine humidor or cooler for new stock. Any cigars you buy or receive should be double bagged, dated, and put into the quarantine for 3 months. If no beetles show up during that time, then take them out of quarantine and add them to your regular storage. Should you have a beetle issue while in quarantine you will have contained (double bags) and you can freeze that lot to kill them off. Then put them back in quarantine for another 3 months.
