seems there are shed roofs collpsing all over the place up here with the weight of snow on them ,we only have a little lean to roof down and no major issue wlth that but there have been one or 2 real bad ones and heard on the news that a big shed with over 120 cattle totaly collapsed :scared: man inside was very lucky
there was another where they were looking for somebody thought to be inside ,hope they are ok :sad:
 
I sweped alot of snow off roofs yesterday just in case . It was bloody hard work but glad I did it . Easier than puting a new roof on

Ooh thats bad:sad:
Talking to lad with beef cattle across hill from me today, I can see his sheds from my side of hill, better than he can, his problem is quite a few valley gutters, so when snow melting in sun, its sliding all the weight into valleys:scared: Hell of a depth up there now
 
would there be alot of snow to make up a tonne..What weight would be on the roofs that are colapsing.
