Can you leave them out completely during the winter when there is snow, rain and wind?

Don't know. Ours is in the desert and we brought it in for the summer when we leave.115 degree plus days is pretty hot. Obviously it will last longer if it can be brought out of the harsh elements.

The manufacturer doesn't recommend it according to the instructions that are included. They suggest moving them "indoors" during rainy weather. I don't know about snow, and depends on how windy it gets where you are, but they'll stay put during "normal" windy conditions. Hope that helps.

You will have to use your own waterproofing solution. And no, wind passes right through hem so I would not recommend them for cold weather.

I cover mine in rain and snow. The wind can blow your pilot light out, depending on direction and force. I cover mine by placing my plastic camping table over it. Important to keep back dry

If you remain aware of your surroundings, then yes! On smooth surfaces without snow or ice your feet could become unstable. They are so easily removed & reinstalled it really shouldn't be necessary to keep them on, although I have worn them numerous times in grocery stores, etc. without difficulty.

I don't know about snow. However, I have them in uncovered patio in Florida. They have gone through major rain, heat and cold (40 degrees) and still look as good as when I got them. My brother just purchased them after seeing my patio.

They will take a snow load as long as they are attached to the roof. But they should or need to be cleaned to work properly.

Yes, remove the mats during off-season. Store them rolled or flat. They are as easy to lay out next winter as they were this past winter.

they are not weather proof. You could use them on a dry evening if you don't leave them out overnight.

Yes, but you don't want to push down onto the wires. I tend to rake most of the snow, leaving about 2 inches of snow on the roof. Obviously you have to be careful or you can pull the wires out of the roof.

Yes indeed. I have had mine outside in rain and snow for the past year or more. Just make sure it is snapped closed!

I don't think so. I think the material will dry rapidly. I think your rain happens with colder weather like ours. I don't plan on using them in the rain season.

I keep them outside for entire year. I live in Minneapolis area so we had a pretty rough winter and they look pretty good. They could use a power washing but have no signs of break down. I recommend.

Thank you for asking!They are often used outside, however they are not designed to withstand rain or snow.Peg Schmidt, LED Lytes

You can let them go anywhere, but I would suggest a NON WINDY day in an open area as Loft winds can be fairly high when ground winds are nothing at all.

. I got them to trap the water fromMelting snow off my car in the garage. I would say it woildnt be wose to leave them outside in the winter as they might split if they had a lot of water on them and they froze.
