Default Storing furniture in unheated space, cold weather

I've not done this before, so am concerned. Midwest, unheated but dry
storage area. A few pieces of good, wood furniture. Am wondering about
potential for damage just from continued cold and assuming it remains
fairly dry. The storage area is secure, so no leaky roof or puddles.


Humidity is an important factor. Dry N.American air has
caused cracks in a lot of European furniture (usually in large
thin, flat panels.)
