A method of protecting glass panes in window structures installed in buildings includes applying a polymeric foam layer to the glass pane before the storm has arrived and peeling the polymeric foam layer from the glass pane after the storm has passed. The polymeric foam layer can be a polyurethane foam, provided as a one-component system or a two-component system, and the polyurethane foam can be sprayed onto the exterior surface of the glass pane to prevent damage thereto including shattering while absorbing energy from wind-borne debris. A window structure installed in a building includes a glass pane mounted to a frame with a polyurethane foam layer disposed thereon for protection of the glass pane during storms.
