Okay here's one for those of you in snowy climes . . .

Dave typically gets up on the roof and clears the snow after it stops snowing. Today/tonight is a little different.

It has been snowing since 8 AM and there's about 1-2" new snow on the ground and, hence, on the roof of the Montana.

It is forecast to snow through the evening and then overnight turn to sleet/ice. Total snowfall may get up to 8" per forecast.

Thing is, if he gets up there later to clear off the snow and then there's a covering of mostly ice . . . well, we're more concerned about a layer of ice directly on the roof versus snow and then ice on top.

Then again, don't want to end up with 8" of snow on the roof . . . not sure how much is "too much" snow on the roof.

Tomorrow's forecast is high of 37 and partly sunny.

Base question then is letting the snow pile up and then ice coating on top versus having an ice coating directly on the roof.

Thoughts? Icehouse? What do you do/suggest?

Thanks!
