Suggest two layers of modular tentage if possible. I was inside my shelter when a rainstorm outside. I was not surprised that water was dripping off the insides surfaces of the somewhat weathered fabric. A second layer of canvas would give a form of run-off protection.

Two layers of canvas is fine, but only if you leave a space between them. Otherwise, any leakage through the first one will cause the second one to rot.
