Weather conditions don't usually affect these devices. Sometimes they can affect the battery in the keypad though. If it also does not work from the remote then that is a simple fix. Find 2 plastic adjustments on the motor unit that POKE OUT of the unit not in. Turn both of these up 1/8 to 1/4 turn, never all the way up or alot. Tis turns the force up that cold can affect. If it only does this on the keypad after the battery is replaced I would get a new keypad. You can go to your local sears or to searspartsdirect.com for one. Do a 2x4 safety reversal test too.
