Prepare for Harsh Weather

[Ruffled_Feathers]

Hi All,
I've very recently put my flock of 13 chickens into a large run and hen house outside where they now spend 100% of their time. They've only been out for 5 days and are doing pretty well despite the current rainy 50° weather. But with hurricane season just around the ben, what can I do to prepare my 6 & 8 week old pullets and their habitat? I welcome any ideas about how I can fortify their run and I'll attach pictures, so you can see what we're working with. We just built the run ourselves and it's 25x10x10. Should I just bring my pullets back inside to be safe?
