Can't believe we're still in catastrophic drought and the wheels are already turning in my brain--winterizing!
My new run extension is 8'x10' so this winter I'd like to hang/install clear shower curtains or vinyl panels to go around for rain and wind mitigation. Our temps (Central TX) can jump from 70's or more one day, to an event like The Big Freeze 2021. Thankfully, a few inches of snow is infrequent but highly possible. There is no "average" anymore. My primary goal is keeping wind and driving rain at bay. My run is 2x4 frame, hardware cloth walls with a metal lean-to roof. Situated on the north side of my barn. I'll probably put the wind protection up to about 6'. I hate to have flapping sheets of plastic so am also researching something like anti-flap straps across any sheeting. Looks like some folks create 'panels' that can be removed after winter, but storage for those is challenging. Would be great to have something that can be rolled up but I'm open to all suggestions. Thanks in advance.
