Heads UP! - Here Comes Flossie
#38
Hi Robin, Can’t speak for hurricanes but have seen what happens in high winds and outer reaches of tornadoes.

When closed, the wind still gets in through the openings at the bottom and you have what starts to look like a Goodyear blimp. If this continues, the zippers will rip apart, or it may just decide to take flight. Fortunately, the weight might prevent it from flying too far and you should find it somewhere around Banyan Drive.

With the windows and doors open, the fabric is exposed on all sides to the fully fury of the winds causing them to turn into sheets hanging on a line.

Either case, they do tend to get somewhat ripped up just from flying debris or from the sheer force of the wind tugging on the tie down straps

So, I'm not sure the best tactic, but many people take them down when heavy winds start whipping over the plains.
