Will admit I haven't read the full thread so apologies if already mentioned.
You need to be careful here.
A flat I used to rent long term had to be demolished because of a few careless drill holes.
Cosmetic work was needed to the exterior of the whole apartment block and the workers drilled a few holes to attach this and that to do with their scaffolding, nettting and banners etc. The holes were not massive.
High winds were a very regular problem in the area due to elevation, position, cross winds and such.
We had to live there while the works went on. You could hear the wind tearing at the scaffolding so hard that you could even feel the vibrations coming through the structure. A couple of storms were actually terrifying.
Anyway, the initial drilling cracked the bricks and wind stresses made that worse. The construction company filled the drill holes with blobs of mortar when they'd finished.
All good? Not quite. Over the next couple of years, the messed up bricks allowed water ingress that no bugger noticed. End result, fucked up building, too expensive to remedy by the time it was discovered and us having to move from a home and area we loved. The black mold that was present in the walls when they took it down was epic. On the day the removals men came, in our final check on the empty rooms, lit by a bright setting sun, we were shocked to see big black shadows under the wallpaper that were obviously black moor. We reckon we moved out just in time before it got though the wallpaper to invest our possessions with said mold.
Your absolutely bloody lovely neighbour might say she will lower it when the wind gets up but that's utter bollocks. She might be out or in bed asleep for a start when the wind gets going. Apart from that, wrestling with what is essentially a very heavy sail in high winds is extremely difficult and likely to result in injury to person and structure. If one end starts flailing in the wind, very dangerous.
