  • When the Wind Becomes Concerning
    Aug 19 2025

    A few stops left us feeling a little bit concerned. Allie and Rob talk about the balance between calming fears and having a plan.

    ⚠️ Dangers of Wind Storms While RV Camping 1. Falling Trees and Branches • In wooded campgrounds, strong winds can snap large branches or even bring down whole trees onto RVs. Safety Tip: Avoid parking under tall or leaning trees. Pick open or sheltered sites with fewer overhead hazards. ⸻ 2. Awning & Slide-Out Damage • Awnings act like sails, and slide-out toppers can rip away in high winds, often damaging the RV itself. Safety Tip: Retract awnings and slide-outs if a storm is forecast or if winds pick up suddenly. ⸻ 3. Rocking and Instability • Even parked, RVs can sway and shake during strong gusts, making it unsafe or unnerving for occupants. Safety Tip: Use stabilizers, lower jacks fully, and if winds are severe (50+ mph), consider moving to a sturdier shelter. ⸻ 4. Flying Debris Around Camp • Loose gear like chairs, grills, or firewood can turn into dangerous projectiles. Safety Tip: Always secure or store all outdoor equipment when not in use, especially if windy weather is possible. ⸻ 5. Roof, Vents, and Antennas at Risk • Wind storms can tear off vent covers, loosen seals, and damage antennas or satellite dishes. Safety Tip: Inspect your roof regularly, keep vent covers secure, and lower antennas before storms. ⸻ 6. Outdoor Safety Concerns • Walking around camp during a wind storm is risky due to falling limbs or sudden gusts. Safety Tip: Stay inside your RV—or better yet, move to a safer structure if winds are extreme. ⸻ 7. Storm Shelter Awareness • RVs are not built to withstand severe wind storms or tornadoes. Relying solely on your RV for protection can be dangerous. Safety Tip: Always know the nearest storm shelter, bathhouse, or solid building at your campground. If a strong wind storm or tornado is approaching, leave the RV and take shelter there. ⸻ ✅ Bottom line: RVs are great for camping, but they aren’t storm-proof. Secure your gear, retract awnings, avoid trees, and always know where to go if the winds get dangerous.
