We used this tent for the first time in Finnish lapland in spring. Temperatures were between 5-15C or 40-60F and it rained for two days which was not a problem since the tent is made out of silpoly instead of silnylon so it doesn't "wet out" and become heavy like my old tent used to do. It is spacious enough for all of our gear to be sheltered from rain and there is also enough room for our dog to roam a little.
