A storm cover ( 10 ) to protect an opening in a structure includes a plurality of fabric panels ( 13 ) attached to each other by connectors ( 20 ). A receiver ( 24 ) is adapted to be attached to the structure and carries one end of the cover ( 10 ). A latch mechanism ( 30 ) includes a base ( 31 ) which is adapted to be attached to the structure. The latch mechanism ( 30 ) includes a tension connector ( 35 ) which is attached to the other end of the cover ( 10 ), and a tensioning arm ( 42 ) pivotally connected to the tension connector ( 35 ). Rotation of a handle ( 44 ) on the arm ( 42 ) positions a tab ( 39 ) of the tension connector ( 35 ) in a slot ( 33 ) in the base ( 31 ) and positions a pivot surface ( 46 ) of the arm ( 42 ) in a hook ( 34 ) in the base ( 31 ) to attach the other end of the cover ( 10 ) to the structure while at the same time tensioning the fabric.
