Need some ideas/suggestions!

I put thick cardboard and it seemed to help a lot!

Looks like my "old" coop! I use to use tarps but now that I moved I can't since the wind will just tare them up like nothing. The heavy duty metal wood roof blew off once.
I was thinking about the tarps in the inside of the run....maybe that will work. Here is what my coops looked like during the summer. View attachment 4274018
Both of our coops look almost the same You can see how the wind blows around in the run ( I should have made them shorter).

Whereabouts do you live? Southwest or Mountain West maybe? I can definitely see that you live with winds!

temps drop from 70F yesterday - 20 something F with winds over 40mph

This may be stupid of me, but just to check on the dash...you mean positive 20F, above zero right? 20F without a heater and mostly birds should be fine. But -20F below zero with 40mph winds is a whole 'nother beast even for birds with good thick feather coats.
