Probably due to having a large 'sail' attached to the side of the caravan in the form of an awning. Storms without an effected awning are far less stressful....TrevorW�� https://www.blogger.com/profile/13212954091289189979noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5125377846799056778.post-26952474680081850192018-04-14T09:44:59.361+01:002018-04-14T09:44:59.361+01:00Wow that must have been a frightening time.

There's not a lot you can do once the awning starts to go and its that feeling of helplessness that I find stressful. Of all the elements for me high winds are the worse. We had a fair depth of snow here with deep drifts and were locked in for 3 days although we managed a few walks around. All the best and hope you get everything sorted out soon.
