Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

"cover muffler tips. rat bait/poison in engine bay. "
I suppose under the right circumstances, this would be good advice. It leads me to ask though, where are you "storing" this thing? If you're looking to "cover all the bases" you may want to think about security as well..
I'm by no means an expert, but I've always heard that the engine will not get hot enough. If you can't drive it pretty hard for 30 minutes, better off not starting it. Once again, this is only what I've been told. My car is a dd, but currently has 2ft of ice/snow in front of it, so until I get time to dig her out, she's sitting put.
None of the storage places close to me have electric options for a trickle charge or climate control. Would you start it then? It's *** cold here November-March. It was -4 today.
Cold here in canada, we are having a warm spell today, high of 5F.
But car is in warm garage at my mom's garage. 4-6 weeks till we start her up, can't wait!!
I asked the same questions a while back and was told by a very knowledgeable guy(in my opinion) "Thank you for not starting during the storage period." I followed his advice along with what is already posted above. Your battery will go dead within a period of time due to parasitic systems still active in the car. The Bentley book recommends trickle charging if going to sit for more than 6 weeks. If the battery dies then you have the hood opening issue, as I think yours probably has the electric triggered latch. It can be overcome but is a hassle. Leave" frunk" unlatched. Never read anything about climate control storage, mine is in my garage and it is cold in Nebraska as well.
I'm in agreement with LexVan but over the course of a winter on warmer days when roads are clear of snow and crap I'll run mine but typically I'll drive it for 30-45 minutes. Brutal February here in Massachusetts however so she hasn't poked her nose out of the garage since December.
Pull out your spark plugs and get a boroscope in to inspect the liners in the spring if you're car is parked and started outstide all the time in those temps...
I can usually find a day or two when I drive mine when the roads are dry and salt free
