The awning by itself is weak but there are mods that can be done to make power awnings bulletproof in the wind. Search for "electric awning support poles". Do a search for the same at the Forest River Owners forum, some folks there made them and sold them as kits. There is also a mod that adds another pole so deflapper clips can be used.
I have both mods. My awning has been out for the last 3 weeks in N central PA mountains. Last weekend we had 25mph sustained winds with gusts tob40 mph from the remains of Ian. The awning is fine.
