I gave up covering my barbecues decades ago. I never knew where to put the
cover when the cue is in service, usually forgot to put it back on when done
and then spent quite a bit of time chasing the damn thing about the yard when
the wind decided to move it.

Personally, I don't see why moisture under the cover is worse than
moisture raining directly onto the grill. I also think that rather than
snow, ice, and sun directly on the grill, a little moisture under the
cover isn't as bad. I can imagine discussion of mold growth, but if this
is just a cover that slips over the grill, like mine is, there is still
plenty of air movement to keep mold at bay, especially since you are
covering it for the cold weather.
I keep my grill covered at all times, including the summer, and have never
had any issues with mold.
I think this is one of those debates though, where you can get people
weighing in on both sides, and no real definitive answer.
