When strong/ high-speed wind blows, an umbrella held upright at times gets upturned. Explain the reason.

As we know that high-speed winds have low pressure due to their scattering and when we move with holding umbrella on a windy day it gets upturned because the winds pass at the top of the umbrella and when the winds pass they create a low-pressure region over the top of umbrella and due to the pressure difference the higher pressure below the umbrella turns the umbrella

upside-down to maintain the balance and neutralize the pressure difference.
