While it does, keep the grill dry while it's on, keeping it on is difficult.  Even when I tighten up the Velcro so that it's overlapped by about 8 inches, the wind continually blows the cover off.  I went out and bought magnets, put them in a fabric sleeve and attached three to the top and two on the bottom to hold the cover on.  That works, but it would have been better to not need them at all.  You would think an $80 cover would stay on...
