I figure there are plenty of people here with much more experience with snow than I have...
SO - - when do you remove snow from your roof?
DH has been at it all day. I'm wondering about the wisdom of this. We had 29" of snow 3 days ago. We are supposed to get another 15" tonight and tomorrow. Now we just don't get that much snow all at once around here (Maryland). Our sunroom has a flat roof, so DH went up to shovel it before we got that extra 15" tonight. Then he saw our plumbing vents were iced over, so he shoveled them out. The main part of our house has a pitch to it, but it is on the shallow side of "typical" around here. So he kept pitching snow and pitching snow. And maybe he's "in the zone" now as it is dark out and he is still pitching the snow off the roof. I think the neighbors are staring at us and scratching their heads. What do you think?
