Am I worrying too much about my children being in a caravan this w'end?

I know that this must sound silly... I would really like an opinion..

My ex-husband took our children (Aged 5 & 7) to a caravan park yesterday, for a three night break, returning on Monday.
I have been reading all the news reports/weather forecast's about the possible severe storms on Sunday night/Monday, and I am so worried about them being in a caravan on the south coast..... The weather sounds like it could be absolutely awful.... and if they have issued warnings about houses/buildings being damaged, how will a caravan cope?
I have expressed my concerns to Ex-H, but he just tells me not to worry and they will be fine. I have said that their safety must come first and suggested that he could bring them home on Sunday afternoon, but he won't...

I am so worried. Do you think I am over reacting...?

I would really be grateful for any opnions/advice...

If there is a serious risk the caravan park will almost certainly close and they will be sent home.

Well If he has a vehicle they can always retreat to that, most caravan parks have some solid buildings, if it does get hairy,

It will be an adventure,

I have a lot of friends who live in caravans/trailers all year round, we are in devon, they aren't unduly worried, caravans are surprisingly tough these days.

I lived in 1940s caravan on an island for a winter in the Hebrides, it used to creak a bit and huff and puff in and out, as big winds hit it, but other than drips, it was fine.

It is so very hard not to panic when you can't assess the danger yourself...

My sons first holiday we came back a day early because of a sereve weather warning...It was dreadful and just stuck in a caravan...

You kids will enjoy the excitement of it..

Is suggesting he brings them backa good idea? I only say that as I know a lot of ex partners who if it is there idea all well and good but not the other parent if you see what I mean
