X2 for Hurricane Arthur while on PEI.
WE were on an Ocean Front site. For the first half of the storm we were faced directly into the wind, jacks down, awning retracted and slides in. Lots ocean spray and we rocked around a bit. We were not near any trees or power poles so I stayed put. Figured it was no worse than traveling down the highway at 60 MPH into a headwind.
Second half of the storm the wind blew from directly behind us. WE stayed put for that as well, tucked up tight.
No problems, no damage.
The guy beside us was in a Class C rental and left his slide out. I politely warned him but he was "Frunk as Duck" so to speak and ignored me. The slide awning ripped in half during one big gust and was then flapping on the roof. The guy didn't even bother to come out to look or retract the slide.
The entertainment never stops!
