I can read interior humidity, so when the weather turns colder I'm going to record everything in writing. Once I have the baseline I will know what direction to go.
Smart plan, Rick.

"There are preformed foam fillers that normally go between the top of your roof panels and the bottom of the ridge cap to keep out bugs and more importantly snow and blowing rain. Did you use them?"
Negative...nothing is blocking any of the rib openings anywhere on the roof. I'm not sure what you are trying to explain about raising the ends of the panels. To vent the sides of the roof between the purlins would only require a slot cut into the gable drip panels. But, unless done properly water will be able to blow right in them(same with the end cap vents). Before I modify anything, I am going to take the time to make sure it's done right and not cause more problems than I'm fixin'.

Dang Pacer...nice illustration! I really hope I don't have to do that much "work" but I admit it looks cool.....of course the cupola must be sheathed in copper:thumbsup:
As for the transition to the porch roof, that's how it's done 'round here. I did have some concern with the possibility of ice growing back under it & I guess time will tell. What I really should have done is put a 2' roll of Ice shield behind the transition.....again hindsight.
Eddie....no water is coming down inside the house at all...not the house ceiling, just outside on the porch transition and yes that would be the porch ceiling.
Pacer, my roof is 10/12 and the porch a 2.5/12.
