Spent two hours, late yesterday, shoveling snow off the roof, and was impressed with its' icy-heavy-weight. To call it heavy would be an understatement. Apparently, the amount of snow on a roof can vary greatly as determined by things like the roof pitch and the exposure to sunlight.

Drove by the former Rhinehart GMC-Buick in Plymouth and took a minute to look at the colllapsed roof. The roof over what had been the service bays had collapsed from the snow, and the amount of damage is huge.

Hopefully, this storm will be all snow without any rain. Probably, rain would create more of a roof problem than snow.

Here's an advance warning.....you read it here first before it happened.....tomorrow's Union Leader and Citizen will report an Ossipee roof cave-in at the Easy Cafe that gave customers just seconds to get out fast with no personal injuries. The roof groaned and cracked, and everyone headed for the exits....fast!

....the power of the internet!
