A weatherproof cover for protecting electrical receptacles from the harsh elements of weather is disclosed herein. This novel weatherproof cover is operable while the electrical receptacle is in use and includes a weatherproof switch that controls power to the receptacle such that when the receptacle cover of the weatherproof cover is closed after the insertion of an electrical appliance plug, the weatherproof switch can be selected to the ON position to provide power to the receptacle. Power can be subsequently removed or disconnected from the receptacle by simply selecting the OFF position of the switch. Thus, the weatherproof cover protects the receptacle from damage "While-In-Use" and provides a disconnect switch to control power to the receptacle without having to open the receptacle cover.
