Steel torsion springs lose flexibility in the cold, and Worcester lows near 17F are when a spring near the end of its cycle life most often snaps.
Does Worcester heat affect garage door openers?
Summer highs near 79F in Worcester can make an opener's motor and a door's weatherseal work harder, and a door that reverses on hot days often has a sensor or travel-limit issue rather than a failed opener.
