3 Dams Broken
This picture of the front of the house was taken on January 27, 2001

Circles indicate "Dams Broken" on December 27, 2000
Circle at left was in the "hip" of the roof.


Note: Breaking the dams at the three locations shown above allowed the "built up water" and remaining "snow pack" to melt off the roof "in due course."

On January 27th, when this picture was taken, the only snow or ice residual is shown here. All that's in the gutters is ice.
