Slow roof slide

[Dutch445]

1 week ago today we got 24+ inches, and although I shovelled off
my house, I can't get on the barn. The snowpack has been slowly
creeping down, and I took these pics 3 days ago. the snow is
still hanging on, but even further now!

Pretty cool, nature, you could never engineer that.

I had that happen at my house too. I have metal gutters, but I'd bet your vinyl gutters are taking a beating from all that weight.

We were not so lucky.

Ouch Sarg, that sucks.

lots of that happening around here, local farmer
lost 4 dairy cows last weekend when part of the barn
collapsed

I just drove back by my house again, still there.. and yea,
at least 1 section of that gutter will be toast, along with
the bracket... and i just fixed it this past fall...........

My porch has a metal roof, 12" overhang, and about a 4/12 pitch. Twice in 12 years the snow has curled under like that enough to put icicles thru a window. Interesting phenomenon! MikeD74T

Good Evenin Dutch,
That is really unique, as JB stated, you could never engineer that over again !
