Prepping for the worst Blizzard of the Year
What happens here
After all snow and ice removal is complete, perform a thorough inspection of the roof, gutters, and interior ceilings for any signs of damage or leaks. Ensure all melting ice and snow has clear drainage paths and that gutters are not clogged. Once the winter season ends, consider implementing long-term prevention strategies such as improving attic insulation and ventilation to prevent future ice dam formation. The video highlights scenarios where heavy snow and ice can cause significant damage, including a car being hit by falling ice.
Goal: Check for damage and implement measures to prevent future ice dams.
