It won't hold up! It needs to be stored where it doesn't freeze or be in excessive heat. I store mine in a corner of the basement. Do you have a heated garage or large pantry?
Hi Frankie, check on your labels to see what it says about storage. I know mine wouldn't stand -20 degrees. I don't know if this will help, but here is an article with proper storage techniques.

I agree with Linda. Check the labels on your paint cans. It will tell you how cold and how warm the paint can be stored at.
If they aren't full gallons perhaps you can transfer some of the leftovers into small jars which would take up less space. If you have an empty corner in your home, you could stack the cans there and put a fabric screen in front of them.
Put each can in a cupboard /closet that was painted that color for that area-when you need to repaint you have the color right there.
You're welcome! Good luck!
