YMMV but I'd bet that in warmer weather, you'd succeed. Do you have
a means to warm the area substantially (without overheating, of

Yes, but that extension cord is going to get pretty long and heavy if
it's going to reach as far as Newfoundland I'm already in Maine.
There will be plenty of August nights no warmer than it was today.
