I'm wondering what the snow load rating for the roof of my mid '90's coach is (coach #426)? This is my first winter with this coach. I'd suspect 6" or a foot would be no big deal... and I have the heat on... and so-far any accumulation has melted off in a day or two (we received about a foot or so of the white stuff last week).

I had a converted MCI-7 for about a decade... didn't seem like upwards of a couple of feet of snow on the roof of that coach ever mattered.

Is there an amount of snow accumulation on the roof that would be cause for concern? I can see that getting up there to shovel it off would be... well... a bit interesting. Maybe I should just park it in the barn for the winter... and maybe next year I'll get the RV shed built.
