Light rain was okay to me as long as the awning was adjusted in a slant so that the rain rolled right off rather than pooling which will also cause a collapse.


Thanks for the reply. I have no idea how to adjust awning in a slant. The Thor video that demonstrates ow to make the adjustment has different arms (according type) than the one that came with my Vegas. I don’t think mine can be adjusted. You need a ladder to get to the arms.
