In April of last year we were at a campground and the weather was supposed to be pretty unsettled but I had no idea it would get like it did.
The rains started slowly then the wind picked up. The awning was stowed immediately. Then it absolutely poured for quite a while. Thankfully it stopped... Only to be replaced by a pretty brutal hail storm. It was so loud in the TT that we could barely hear each other talk. I was imagining what the truck and TT were going to look like after it was over.
It finally stopped and we went outside to survey any possible damage and there was none! The hail was marble sized or smaller so I guess it just wasn't big enough to do any damage. Then the tornado sirens started!! Really? When we checked in the woman at the desk told me if there is threatening weather head to the shower house. So we did. There was probably 40 sites that were occupied and there were only five people that showed up at the shower house. I was pretty surprised that this threat was taken so lightly. The weather passed without incident and we went back to the TT. We stayed outside talking and looking around and one loop over I saw some owners trying to make sense of their destroyed awning. I guess they learned the lesson that when the wind whips up like that, the awning should be your first concern.
