just a heads up guys, the sow from the roof of mine has slid off in one go onto the street below, im guessing heat from house causing melting and the flux in temperature has caused it all to slide. please be careful when walking around the streets, id hate to think what would of happened if someone was underneaty. im guestimating a ton of the stuff at least

Good that the fall of snow didn't hurt anyone. Houses used to have snowboards to prevent this.

Friend of mine had a chunk of the guttering pulled off, too. I imagine a snowslide'd be worse on a smooth slate or tiled roof - less grip.
