A common question I get is, “Will my lights work in the snow?” Here in the Twin Cities and Minnesota we get a lot of snow each year and it gets piled on top of lighting fixtures. Any 12 or 24 volt system using up-lights and halogen bulbs will melt snow. Path lights will not melt large amounts of snow. Up-lights on trees or the side of the house will melt a cone of snow and continue working properly. These are some pictures of up lights buried in 2 – 3 feet of snow and the result.
