Depends on what you are storing. If you have any metal cone CRTs I highly recommend keeping them stored at as constant a temperature as possible to prevent metal-glass micro fractures and leaks...Early plastics (which are sometimes used in unexpected places) also can be adversely affected by heat. I personally don't like my sets to be stored above 90f. Back when I lived in an apartment we killed the AC during a vacation at the height of summer, and when I got back one of the large plastic feet had shattered on my metal cabinet Silvertone roundy color; it's mount screw damaging the set it was resting on, and the whole thing was off balance to the point it could have fallen off.....I've yet to find a good substitute for it.
