Winds here in GA were pushing 50MPH, my awing was out, My neighbor's awning was out, Mine is still, his... Is no longer... What can I say.. Canvas beats vinyl for awnings perhaps
.

That said mine is well anchored as well, Plus I have a sun screen which broke the wind blowing under it a bit. .. I did not loose any antennas but one of the support poles needed to be re-positioned a bit, still up but leaning into a bracket.

WInds down here are ... Fierce.

As for the cold.. ALMOST enough to light up my water hose (high 30's was the lowest, takes 35 to light it up 45 to make it dark again) I am frost resistant.
