For those with enclosed lanais with slider/stackable windows, depending on your design, consider leaving them open to avoid pressure build up.

Ours for example has stackable sliders on three sides.....the manufacturer and installer state they are designed for 70 mph....and recommend leaving them open at higher wind speeds.

Our plan is to move the furniture toward the backside of the house and leave the sliders stacked open.
