I use a Hennessey hammock as a tent since the last tent I used got rained out whereas it was a traditional. The rainfly gives a certain amount of insulation depending on if it's right down on you as a roof or more open. I also use a Thermarest insulating pad when it's supposed to get colder than 50 degrees outside. The coldest I've slept in while still being completely comfortable is around 19 degrees at night. Also, in a hammock mobility is key, this is why I use a Selk'Bag. Sure they look ridiculous, but they're dual purpose, I don't need any cold weather clothing and it's pretty great to be able to get up and take a piss without freezing your rear end off.
