I don't expect we'll get much more than a dusting. My plan was to disconnect the gutters and cover the tank with a tarp during the fallout. The ash could be wet/muddy ash so I would probably have to babysit it to keep the accumulation low.
A 20x20 HPM electrical conduit tarp kit could be used to cover it with a free standing option so long as you have the means to keep the ash from accumulating on it in any significant amount.
If the fallout is heavy the plan is basically the same, "do the best that I can" to keep out as much ash as possible without causing a new problem like collapsing the catchment tank cover frame.
Fortunately all our solar panels can be reached by a hose stream so keeping them clear of ash shouldn't be a problem.
