Many ehrliche yidden NEVER wear a hat at any time. If they are male, a yarmulke is what they wear. If they are female, they either do or do not cover their hair, depending on their marital status and hashkafa. While snoveling snow outside in the cold, it is highly recommended that EVERYONE wear a warm winter hat to protect themselves. A Borsalino will NOT do the job, so someone shoveling snow in that type hat is actually misakein himself unless he also has ear muffs on.
