This is the price we pay for those picture-perfect Christmas photo opportunities.

That snow is a great insulator, but bad if the roof is not watertight, or if it collapses on someone. I wonder if there are roofs designed with "snow catches", maybe also like a rain channel. So maybe three feet perpendicular from the roof sticking out, in theory good for holding back three feet of snow.

I think there are small wheels on each corner so it doesn't scrape, but you are right if those shingles are not laying perfectly flat, if it catches even just a little bit...
