How to keep my horse safe during a hurricane: stable or open field?

Question

There's a category 5 hurricane coming to where I live. I don't know if I should leave my horse on her stable because it's made out of wood and zinc or on an open field which is surrounded by trees. What should I do ? Pet's info: Farm Animal | Horse | Female

An open field would be safer, it depends if you are leaving your home or staying there, if you are staying you could leave her in the stables waiting for the last moment to eventually let her in fields if you judge that the stables could collapse.
