Default Is it save to use my WSM in an open metal shed?

See the following webpage for a picture of the shed:

I'm having trouble using my WSM outside. Last time I smoked ribs it
rained. I pulled the smoker under the awning of the house, but the
water still splashed on the side and got the charcoal wet.

I was wondering if it would be safe to run it in the metal shed in my
back yard. It has a big open door, but I wonder if Carbon Monoxide and
smoke will fill the top and knock me out.

Thanks,
Bobby

LOL!
Is that where hurricane Charlie put my shed? Looks just like mine, but I
guess Charlie lost the doors.

No, I wouldn't cook in there without major modifications (more
ventilation), and I don't think that the shed's structure would allow much
without falling apart.

Take the roof off and it should be fine.

I guess that means the answer is "no." I went outside and checked. I
can stand up straight in the shed, but with not much room to spare.

My wife says she would tear the shed down if it were our house, but we
are just renting.

Maybe it is because we live in Louisiana now, but I seem to be
barbecueing in the rain a fair amount.
Thanks for your replies.
