Electrical Outlet Question

...
I have my Christmas lights plugged into several outside GFCI electrical
outlets.

They do have waterproof covers on them, but with the lights being plugged
into the outlet, I don't believe it is adequate coverage to protect it
from the rain and snow.

Would it be safe to simply tie a plastic bag around it? Any other ideas?

Many thanks.


Why not. Tie it on to prevent water entry, but be sure to leave an opening
on the bottom for water to drain. You can also, replace the existing rain
tight covers with "while in use" covers, which will properly solve your
problem
