Before I moved to New Jersey and bought an insulated smoker, I used to use a welding blanket which I then covered with two moving blankets over the top of my horizontal. These would protect the cooking chamber from the cold temperatures, lake effects snow, and high winds.
You can't let a little change in weather stop you from cooking outside. I can recall grilling burgers, sausage, and steaks during snowstorms as well as many overnight smokes.
Weather is only an adversity, how you overcome it is what defines your love of the craft..
