The bales shouldn't get wet. All along their route, they have been protected from rain, so the last thing we want is for them to get soaked. Typically, tarps are strung and the entire building is covered, but that really kills any ventilation and light, so we have devised a compromise. The overhang will protect the top bales, and the bottom bales are covered with lumber tarps that we scored from the lumber yard. At the end of each day, we cover up and will eventually tarp over everything, but for now this works.
