Default Flapping car hood at 60MPH!?

Can anyone help me?

While driving my 95 GS 300 at speeds of 60 plus MPH, the front left and right side of the hood shake and flap at that speed. Like it's not secure, but the lock is very tight. IS THIS NORMAL?

Is there a fix?

That happened when I didn't close the hood all the way. The safety latch was the last thing saving it from going into my windshield.
