weatherproofed
Protected from elements
Weatherproofed describes something that has been treated or constructed to resist damage from rain, wind, snow, or sun.
A weatherproofed jacket repels water; a weatherproofed deck has been sealed against moisture.
The term implies deliberate protection rather than inherent durability: We weatherproofed the windows before winter.
