That walmart tent you buy for 50 aint a good tent, and will either leak like a sieve in the rain, or be so unbreathable as to become an unlivable humidity drenched hotbox from your perspiration and body heat.

These will last 20 years. They haven't even changed the design.
Also, why are you camping in crazy ass weather? Like I said, a tarp is even cheaper and better when it's hot.
I have the 2 person version of that tent. It's me through down pours and wind. The only thing more expensive tents have is easy of set up and tear down.
I know. This other dude doesn't. Expensive camping gear is just lighter by a few oz. Just carry less.
