Explanation:
Invisibility was boon for him during the story. Invisibility became a curse for Griffin when he realised that he would not be able to survive the cold weather or when it will be snowing as in order to become invisible he needed to take out all his clothes.
Griffin had imagined his invisibility would end all his problems. Griffin was motivated to experiment on invisibility many factors. His albinism and passion for physics were prominent two factors that egged him on to experiment on invisibility.
He had believed invisibility would make him invincible, and master of his circumstances. He thought after becoming invisible he would have the impunity to do whatever he chose. He could do anything and escape by being invisible. No person could hold him. He could take his money from anywhere and anyone at his own will. He did manage to enjoy a few of the advantages as mentioned above. He was able to escape from Iping and stay at large for quite some time.
However, after becoming invisible his joy was just short lived. He soon realized many disadvantages of being invisible. The first and foremost disadvantage was the cold. The extreme cold climatic condition in London during winter could not be faced without clothes. In order to become invisible, Griffin had to take all his clothes off. Being clothe less would soon freeze him to death.
The second disadvantage was the rain and the snow. He realized when it rained and snowed, his presence was liable to be detected as the water would trickle down him making him visible; similarly, snow would also make an outline on his shoulders and head making him visible. He could easily be caught and imprisoned.
The fourth disadvantage was he had neither any home nor any shelter where he could hide himself. He did not want to confide his secret of invisibility to anyone, as he had no friend. He feared no one would believe him. He also feared if he confided to anyone he could betray him. Seeing so many disadvantages that could endanger his survival, he felt being visible was far better than being invisible. So he wanted to be visible again. But he did not how to become visible. He needed a quiet place where he could carry his experiments on becoming visible again. He made a plan to cover himself thoroughly until he was successful with his experiment of becoming visible.
