Just in case the storm is as bad as they are hinting, check greenhouse glass, if you have the clip in type then double up with clips, I have 3 to 4 on each side of most of mine instead of 2, if there are any loose or broken and the wind lifts them then you could have a food few popping out, the last time we had a bad one here was 10 years ago and it was amazing to see the greenhouse glass bulging out with the gusts! once one or two had gone then I left the door open to let it blow through

My polytunnel survived hurricane bawbag so Graham must have done a good job
