Can't you warn the neighbours in advance, and suggest that they park
their car somewhere else if strong winds are forecast nearer the time?


The neighbour potentially affected was the one who warned me about it,
so they are already aware.

I'm concerned I would be liable for any damage incurred if it did fail
completely. Unfortunately I don't think there is time to have the fence
replaced. I am considering doing what Lawrence suggests and try to add
extra support to it, or else remove the fence panels completely.
