not the wind but what is blowing in the wind

btw plywood sheets if nailed or screwed over the OUTSIDE of a window on the wall will blow off
as the wind will get under the corners vibrate the sheet and pull it off

the way to do it is cut the plywood to fit INSIDE the window opening on the sill outside
then use 2x4's split on the angle of your window sill to hold the plywood in place
with topcon screws going 90 deg to the wind into the sill so they can't pull out

of course metal shutters lag bolted in place is better but not a last minute deal to get
