Will it be ok for winter storms? I WOULD LIKE A VERY FAST RESPONSE

I had problems with sustained winds and rain. So I imagined lots of snow but also be a problem. The side that has the single support will move around a lot in the wind and get weighed down by water.

Depends on the storm honestly. Some light snow or wind shouldn't bother it. But if you're thinking more extreme get a 4 season tent built to take the abuse.

No... but with a tarp over the top or a custom rain fly it could last through a storm.

You should look for a 4 season tent if you plan to camp in winter storms. Not sure id recommend this tent for any precipitation other than rain and winds <15mph.

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

We've used this for pulling vehicles out of the sand at the beach. It should be ok in snow as well.

I think the wheels are fine. You can't wait until 6 inches of snow has piled up. If you get out there with it after 2 or 3 you can move the snow very easily.

most likely, it's a great tent but you might need better stakes for snow or high wind. structurally it should be plenty strong.

I live in the northeast. We have had some bad wind/rain storms I have had no problems. This will be my first winter with the cameras. I will say putting cameras up was the best thing I did.

PM85, I think it will be fine for the job, but maybe not the exactly what you're looking for. It's not too hot (like a 1875 watt hairdryer) where you can't hold your hand up to it, but warm enough to melt snow. The blowing force is strong enough to knock off any snow or ice.

I would return it. They don't do well in the extreme cold and it will probably die if it's not already gone. Sorry :(

I would not plan on it for winter. The posts are strong enough for it but the covering MIGHT last one winter. My personal advice is do not plan on for winter. Heavy rains oh yes as we've had some already!!

Tom I live in central upstate NY also and u don't have any more snow and ice than we do here. If it breaks you'll have hood damage to I would think. It is very well constructed and I would never worry about it breaking.

This blower is overkill for 1-2" of snow but it would certainly handle it. It's a heavy machine however so a lighter duty blower would be easier to use with that small amount of snow.

I'd say you will have no problem. I'm in Chicago, and last winter was absolutely terrible. I have 2 of these and they survived just fine. Mine are in a corner protected from wind however

Dan did a great job of answering your question. Keep an eye othe temp.....there are times I still need to add snow to keep it around 80

Please disregard my "yes" answer! I hit the wrong button on accident. I am not sure if it will run in cold weather�.

IMHO? rain could be ok but it does tend to hold water sometimes around the edges so if you're attentive to keep excess off... My park only allows these otherwise I'd go with something else. Rain, wind & snow can callapse them Easily if you don't take added measures. I live in snow country and had to go out every hour during a heavy storm last winter to clear the roof, those who did not had theirs collapse. It's relatively easy to tear down & rebuild, I don't know about moving it fully assembled. I tweeked the direction of mine a bit while setting it up & it tended to fall apart if I moved it too far from it's original set up. Frankly, if $ were not the issue I'd go elsewhere but I'm preparing for winter 2 with this. Hope that helped.

Yes. I have had mine for about a year. However, you should note that when you have a 50-60 MPH wind event, you'll have to inspect the structure as the poles may come apart. I think this is reasonable. And, you'll need a broom to coax a snow or ice load off the roof's surface day to day. Accumulation of ice is accute at the edge of the roof and must be periodically inspected and maticulously removed.Tom Lehmann
