Default Painting question

Doesn't the can say you're supposed to have the surface above 55

I'd expect the wall to still be cold from the overnight. I wouldn't risk
it since redoing it would be a royal pain. That "Wintery Mix" listed on
the NWS forecast for Thursday doesn't look paint friendly.

The wall faces east and will be plenty warm by the time I was ready to
shoot, but I agree, it might seriously be effected by Thursday night.
I'll just wait, "if you don't like the weather here wait 5 minutes."


Given the current "Severe thunderstorm warning", "Winter storm warning"
and "Tornado watch" I think not painting outside today is a good idea...
