Answer
Coastal wind near Ocean City, Maryland regularly stress-tests tents and pop-up canopies—especially on frontal days and exposed Assateague sites.
Use sturdy stakes, extra guy lines, and lower profiles overnight. Flying shade frames injure people on beach and camp loops alike.
Check wind and today’s weather before you stake a big screen house.
