Generally the higher the storage temperature the faster it ages. If at high
humidity you can also get molds or other stuff to grow in the gel.
Specially some off brand OMs. Or some other bugs might find the paper good
to eat. All my paper is frozen until I need to use it.
Oxygen (air) is a bigger enemy to developers but I still keep mine at 70F or
lower.

Subject: [pure-silver] storage temperature for paper
My darkroom here in houston is getting rather warm during the day. Right now it is about 88 degrees in there (no AC on when I'm not working there). I keep some of my paper out there in a paper safe. Is this too warm for photographic paper? If not, what is?
Also, what about working solutions of paper developer? What temperature should they be stored at?
