Greenhouse roof collapses.

The shelter roof collapsed yesterday. Last night it was the turn of the greenhouse! The snow from the barn and the side slid off and ONTO the greenhouse. It could not hold it. It collapsed!
In retrospect, it was not a good location for the greenhouse. However, saying that, maybe the past never got the snow storms we are having now? This is our fourth winter here in Grand Forks, and this is the first year we have seen snow staying on the rooves for so long. The snow got to a depth of over 16 inches on the rooves, and as it got wetter with the raise in the temperature, it got heavier.
