idling

How long is too long for idling in cold weather?

Few mornings ago the hood cable was frozen so I let the car idle until it had thawed and shut.

Just wondering at what point does it become excessive, if bad for the car? I'll admit it took a fair few minutes being that it was -30.

this morning I go out to my car and see this

guess where the car is and what it's doing... lol I just wanna know I'm not doing anything TOO terrible to the car by letting it idle for extended periods of time.
