Do not use awnings in heavy rain?????? Really???

Did it also say do not use at all in case of a sudden windstorm? They are just covering themselves for liability reasons. Use it in the rain and use common sense. If it is sloped enough it will not collect water same thing If you tilt it. Let it dry before you put it away. I have put mine away wet before and unrolled it a day later to let it dry. I've been doing it this way for 13 years, 10 with my current trailer and he awning still looks like new.
