We are bracing for 80mph winds, golfball sized hail, and tornados this afternoon. My pastures are filled with trees with a lot of limbs likely to come down, so I have brought the horses in the barn.
Barn is a pole barn with an overhead door in front, and a man door in back. Windows in each stall. Is it safer to keep everything closed up, or leave doors and windows open? I feel like they’re better off being in, especially with the hail and chance of being struck by debris if they’re out. I’m just unsure of what is the best way to protect them in the barn in the event of these high winds.
