It's not so much the air itself you have to worry about, it's what's in the air.

Areas that experience very frequent high winds (e.g. parts of the Antarctic, the upper reaches of 8,000 meter peaks, etc.) have been scoured clean of most debris that has potential to get airborne.

But when a hurricane slams into, say, Florida, there's a lot of stuff that it's going to pick up and hurl around. Your tent will be no match for a flying two-by-four, much less a car.
