You go! I've been known to grill with 6" of snow on the ground. I don't
care. It takes a little longer but the food is definitely tastier and
healthier!

The only real consideration I have when it comes to weather is the wind.
Around here, we can have sustained winds of 30+ mph. If that's the case, I
just grill in the garage with the car door opened about a foot to foot and a
half.

Now, with all that being said, I do have to state that I do NOT grill
burgers. I grill stakes, chicken, roasts and pork of all varieties. No
burgers though.

YMMV,
