    You are having an historic snow event this year for sure. Having a reliable snow removal company is the key to keeping your sanity when living in the mountains and of course nothing less then a Honda or Yamaha snow blower for clearing decks and paths. Great video, thanks for sharing. Can’t wait to see the melt.

    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 !

Presently, that's the most snow recorded anywhere on Earth. It's insane. Worse, there are more storms in the Pacific Ocean heading towards California.

    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.
