Hi Stefan, I'm John, Since you can't get your coach out of the way of that incoming storm and on soft ground what I would do is retract your jacks, retract all your slide outs, by doing this you will be streamlining (less wind drag) your RV as much as possible. Good Luck my friend!
Keep those jacks up... remember, you want to keep the coach center of gravity as low as possible.
Be prepared to clean up some water. A high wind can drive rain thru your fridge vent on the roof or on a slideout. This water will have to go somewhere..I know from experience having camped in a big Nor'easter that hit Cape Hatteras a few years ago.
