You can do anything you want with your flag, as long as you don't hurt anyone but yourself. The Flag Code only applies the govmint displaying the flag.that is so stupid... if i got a flag, i should be able to do anything i want to with it
its just a piece of cloth

I don't think it's actually enforcible where you actually get in trouble, it's more of a "general code" so to speak. Though I think some things might actually be considered illegal, like burning it. But I also heard burning it is the proper way to dispose of an old flag, so guess it really depends.
I was actually curious so I did a google search and we have very similar rules about display of flag, though nothing about weather.

Makes sense because you'd only be able to display it for a week every year.
