Forest Lake's winters and panel choice
Forest Lake logs 51.6 inches of snow most years, per federal climate normals.
Sliding snow off a Forest Lake metal roof can be a genuine hazard to whatever's below the eaves, from a walkway to a parked car.
Snow guards are the standard answer, and they're worth planning into a Forest Lake metal roof from the installation quote, not after the first slide.
