Awning going in the wind?
I was driving I70 West yesterday. 22MPH winds with gusts up to 50MPH. I pretty much had to stop on the highway and use the shoulder to get to an exit. My awning on my slideout was catching the wind...

Wait, did you say on your slideout topper? If so, there is supposed to be a tab on the end of the slideout topper awning tube that is supposed to prevent the awning tube from rotating unless the slide is extended. If that tab is missing or broken, or just not adjusted correctly, it is possible for the slide awning to sail. If it is your large sun awning John's post above is a solution.
Yes, the slideout awning topper. It is a brand new unit, and since day 1 I have issues with this awning - it does not seem to be lined up properly, the front of it twists a little bit, and the back has extra fabric - almost like it is installed crooked.
I have already asked for that to be repaired under warranty, so I am going to ask about this tab as well because it sure isn't working!
