Is it safe to use this product during a snowstorm?

Your phone auto-corrected your question. On my phone ****storm, becomes snowstorm too.

I find in a snowstorm if you microwave it for 12 seconds first it performs much better

It's the only brand of toilet paper I would consider using during a snowstorm.

I would not, as it uses paddles to throw the snow and I would think it would damage the shingles. Otherwise this is a great product, it REALLY throws the snow..even wet heavy stuff.........

My guess is no. First off, you would probably damage the bottle, and second, the bottle is so well insulated that it would probably take a long time to get the snow/ice melted. I have heard of people in AZ and other warm states talk about how iced tea, or ice water will stay for hours in their Hydro Flask in a car well over 120 degrees (they even said the bottle was too hot on the outside, but still had ice inside). Now, is it possible? I think it could be, so if you are only concerned about using it emergencies, I think you are okay. Otherwise, I would purchase a small tin cup or something to add to my pack in case of emergencies.

Charles, I have not yet used my product. There has just been too much snow outdoors. I will wait until late Spring before I give it a try. In answer to your question about batteries, I would suggest not to use a rechargeable. Use a regular alkaline battery instead. It has something to do with the electrical discharge.

I would not apply it in cold weather, but my experience, after many years, proves it to be a good, lasting product. I would suggest that you apply it, however, in warm weather. I live in Maryland. Often our winters are snowy. I have used it successfully on my bilco doors as well as my driveway.

I've used mine for two snow seasons now and have not had that happen. If you can still return I'd do so.

The supports are close together so the snow should not be a problem. The first ShelterLogic I had lasted for 5 years then started getting holes in it.

IMHO, Absolutely! I have used mine for over a year...outside. It is mounted on the corner of the house, beneath the over hang from the roof. It has snowed, hailed and experienced negative Fahrenheit temperatures this winter with no trouble at all.

Most definitely! I used it every day during the last 2 winter and it continuously froze up on me. It only occured during moments of HEAVY labor in 10*F

Probably shouldn't use this, but it might work. Would be better to use the type made for direct contact with water, which is the roof mounted type to melt snow and ice.

I have mine on a covered porch and it came through it's first winter snows and many windy downpours without any damage and looks good. It might not fare as well if used out in the open during a heavy snowfall. Perhaps you could place it under an evergreen tree for some extra protection from snow. On my covered porch, it definitely protects the cats' food from becoming waterlogged. I did cut and tape two inexpensive plastic placemats to protect the floor. This can be taken out and cleaned and put right back in. About one year later, I'm very satisfied with this product and my several outside cats use it every day.

Yes. It seems to work well in all weather but we have not experienced a snow storm so I cannot attest to that.

Yes, it can! I did indeed try it for that purpose. To know if the snow is light and fluffy for the job, try blowing a little bit of snow with your mouth. If it comes off, then this will do the trick perfectly. However, do not store the blower inside your car. It will degrade the battery quickly. It is my understanding after reading numerous articles on LI and Ni-Cad batteries that they do not like to be stored in extremely hot or cold temperatures over extended period of times.

Yes! Here in Vermont we get some serious snow storms. I used this brush to remove snow off of our vehicles and it seemed to work quite well and in that its soft and safe for car-finishes, it fit the job requirement perfectly.It's a year round auto brush for us.

It works fine in the rain, no issues. I haven't encountered any snow so I can't answer to that.

It did not work for me last winter. Before this winter I used a water repellent like Rain X and that has seemed to work better. The Snow and Ice repellent is good for shovels. I also spray it in the wheel wells of my car to keep slush from building up. If you do this be careful not to spray the repellents on your tires as it could make them slippery. Also, you can get this product at a lower price at Lowe's. Hope this helps.

I think it would be fine to use them outside. You could avoid areas with a lot of loose debris since it probably would adhere to the snowballs. They are machine washable and dryer safe on low heat, so just enjoy them! We have had snowball fights in three different homes and so far, nothing has been broken! They are good, clean fun for all ages!
