We have snow!!! Same view out the kitchen Table window. Steel roof, 18" deep when it came off. No, it's still not all off!

That's the beauty of a pitched metal roof. It comes off on its own.
Just make sure you're not standing under it when it does.
I was inside another persons barn(50 years ago) and all the snow came down at once. Almost filled my pants on that one. Pretty loud and rumbling.
My dad put a metal roof on our house when I was a kid -- the original roof was cedar shingles. If any part of the metal was showing, even weak sunlight heated it up and the roof cleared off quickly.
Also when I was a kid, we had a 3'+ snow drop. When the snow came off the roof, it sounded like thunder (up close) and the piles of snow were taller than I was.
I am curious what this does to your rain gutters?

A number of years ago, I put a clay tile roof on my house. Nothing dramatic happened for a coupla years, but then we had conditions such that snow would slide off suddenly. I was forced to belatedly add snowguards to keep the snow on the roof and melt in a gentlemanly fashion!

Gutters are down lower and the steel roofing has a 2" overhang. A pain to clean. Some damage in one area on the high end. Nothing major but I do fix when cleaning.
Side note.... However, my satellite dish bit it last night. I hadn't gotten to the back of the garage where the dish is. It's hanging straight down right now.
