I understand that, but the reason it is not expected to be run at a temp of less than 41F is because the rubber isn't warm enough.

If the rubber is warm enough, then you're good to go. I've used the blow torch method when I needed it in a pinch. If I am not in a rush, I usually put 4 space heaters next to the tires overnight and I've had no trouble with rain, snow, or ice for the past 2 winters using that method.
