Get the snow off your roof, ASAP, or you'll have ice-dams and then leaks in the house. Be careful and don't do it alone. It's most important near the gutters, so you don't
necessarily have to clear the whole roof, if it's a pitched roof, at least. Flat roofs...you have to think about weight. If it rains with that much snow on the roof, multiply the square footage of your roof by roughly 18 lbs. for 14 inches of rain saturated snow. Good luck.
