It would be, if i could get the windows open. Notice the icicles? they dripped down into the window frame before freezing. Some of the ice is inside the window.

We borrowed a roof rake, and removed tons (literally, tons!) of snow from the lower roof last weekend. But nothing can be done on the high roof.
Ace didn't have any snow rakes. But I needed something I could slide to the sides anyway, not pull toward me. I saw that TV piece about the guy who was buried in snow for four hours when he was clearing his roof.
