    Snow removal in Sweden ! To remove snow from your roof with a rope, you pass the rope under the snow from the high point to the low point and keep the rope taught on either end. This removes the snow's grip, and so it slides right off , I seen it work ! And use a sawing action !

    And I thought we got a lot of snow where I live, just checked and the best average I can find is 240 inches per year with a high of 420 inches. I know how hard it can be to find enough room for all of it, can't quite imagine getting twice as much.
    You can control those ice dams using panty hose with some salt in a leg and lay it on roof so that it cuts through builds a channel. Put several of them acrose the roof and they will provide good drainage. You can use most any rock salt, the type you might use on sidewalks or even just good old water softener salt. Those dams could cause you a huge repair bill if left uncontrolled.

    There's always gonna be that one person bleating and screeching about "drought conditions"........!!!!!
    Safe to say you guys will have plenty of water this summer. Be safe and stay warm!
