How to Run a Generator in the Rain or Snow? – Safety Tips 2022
"Protective Tent Covers: This is another popular choice by most generator owners. This allows you to ensure the portability of the generator while providing the necessary safety. They do not hinder the airflow and help in refueling. These covers will keep the generator safe from any moisture. You will find them mostly in dome structures with flexible poles and straps bracing down the corners to ensure a safe fit." - Jonathan - GuideGenerators.com

Can You Run a Generator in the Rain?
"'Operational cover' is the term used to describe a generator cover that protects the generator while it is being operated. This is distinct from a cover that can only be used when the generator is off, because an operational cover needs appropriate ventilation to allow for proper use without overheating. An operational cover can be used in tandem with a generator running in light to heavy rainstorms to provide power to the home or to the campsite." - Timothy Dale - BobVila.com

"The best solution is a generator tent — a tent designed to protect the generator from rain, snow, and ice in winds up to hurricane force. These small tents fasten directly to the generator frame and move with the generator. They have openings for refueling and the control panel, and allow exhaust to escape and fresh air to enter." - Norwall Power Systems - medium.com
