Leaking Roof

The sound of dripping water at 4am, not usually a good thing.  In fact, I can not think of a time it is EVER a good thing.  Well, all the snow has been melting in the warm day time sun and freezing in the single digit nights.  This caused a good 6 inches of ice built up in our gutter causing ice to seep in under the roof where it then melted and started leaking through the ceiling of the bay window.  Scott got up at 4am when the dripping began and tore off the framing around the window and then climbed up in the atic to mop up the water, then got on the roof and chipped away at the ice.  Hopefully everything will be ok tonight.  Only time will tell as the temperature begins to plumet again.
