Sometimes it’s not windy at all. Other times I’ve seen canopies fly hundreds of feet in the air and land on cars. When it’s that windy, stakes don’t do anything. My friends tent had a couple gallon jugs of water in it and the wind took it. Tents usually do okay but canopies are like parachutes. What I have found to work is to take the corners off of the canopy and if you want extra security, loser the canopy when leaving the site. You could probably look up predicted weather beforehand but most people camp with normal tents and canopies
