A combination of a junction box, a cover plate, and a weather barrier is provided. The junction box has a sidewall, an open end, and a closed end. The cover plate is removably connected to the junction box, and is sized to cover the open end of the junction box. The weather barrier has a non-permeable sheet with a wall cover portion that surrounds a flange that defines a junction box receiving area. The flange protrudes from a first face of the wall cover portion and terminates in a top peripheral edge. The junction box is positioned within the junction box receiving area, the flange surrounds the junction box, and the top peripheral edge extends toward the open end of the junction box. The cover plate engages and forms a seal with the top peripheral edge of the flange when the cover plate is connected to the junction box.
