This has sparked debate between the anchors and weather people on the local news. There's been a lot of snow on the roofs around here. Yesterday,the temperature shot up to the upper 40s and the snow started melting real fast. A couple more roofs colapsed. The weather folks say that the cold dry snow we had only weighed 3 pounds per cubic foot,and the wet snow weighs 21 pounds per cubic foot. OK,I get that. BUT,it hasn't rained or snowed any additional. As the snow melts and becomes heavier,the cubic foot volumn decreases. So how did the snow loads on those roofs increase as it melted without any additional precipitation? Or did it increase? Was it just coincidence that those roofs colapsed?
