Where are you located? I'm in beautiful southern MN. (Roads closed all around me due to the blizzard today....)
Just got my warrernty papers for the shed I put up last fall. 20 or more year snow load covered from builders.
Had insurance put it on.
I'm sure if it comes down, no one will actually pay....
That building has stayed totally free on the roof tho.
My very steep grainery roof, standing seam steel, hasn't Odd. It's so very steep, It won't collapse, the steepness is a very strong feature.
Just one of those years, very heavy wet sticky snow at times, with 2 bouts of rain as well. That's a real stress on roofs. Just heard on the news we've had 40 inches so far, with 4 blizzards trying to pile it up and over every farmyard.
I shoveled off about 50% of my low, shallow roof. East winds will pile it up on that one. And we've had a lot of east wind this year....
Man that's work. The back of the roof is only 8 feet high, and there is 3 foot snowbank, so it's not terrible dangerous. The snow was close to 3 feet in spots, as it drifts on the roof. And real wet heavy stuff, crusted over in 3 layers. Ugh. Building so old, it was a lumber shack been added on to 2 times was moved onto the place 70 years ago, not worth insuring, one beam is cracked & rotting, I put a beam under it for now. It's a 48 by 32 building, but real low 10 foot in front is all. You know how they built things back then, doesn't look like it should stand on it;'s own, but outlasts the new stuff....
I'd not want to go on top of a real machine shed 12-18 feet high eves, and a roof rake is worthless on a building that tall.
Ice dams have been terrible around here, think a lot of folks will find house damage too before this is all over.
Lumber yard a few towns away had their roof collapse a while ago - kind embarassing for that business to have their building cave in. no one hurt.
It's tough winter, and March is typically our snowiest month. We're hardly 1/2 way.....
If my insurance agent suggested the snow needs shoveled off a real machine shed, I'd hand him a shovel!

Today's Featured Article - Gatherin of the Orange - by Rick Nikolich. In July of 1998 I was talking to fellow Allis Chalmers collector Mike Schilling about the annual "Gathering of The Orange" AC show coming up in August of 1999. He got this wild idea that we should get a convoy of AC tractors and drive them from Charlotte, Michigan 105 miles to LaGrange, Indiana.
