we're back on a saturday morning with a rossen reports update. >> with the major winter storms effecting millions across the country, there is a risk your roof can collapse from the heavy snow. we have jeff rossen here to show you how to stop your ceiling from caving in. good morning. >> good morning to you. congratulations. we made it past the big snowstorm. you know it is only february. more snowstorms are coming. no question. there could be a winter hazard at your house and you don't realize it. when snow piles on your roof t looks cool. the white flakes looking like a winter wonderland. it can turn heavy and dangerous. you can see what can happen if you don't take action. >>

from gas stations to office buildings to stores with people inside. >> just crunch, crunch, crunch and it fell right down. >> reporter: heavy snow taking down roof after roof after roof. >> we heard a ba-boom. we looked up and the side of the building collapsed. >> reporter: and already this winter it is happening again and again. at this sports arena, athletes and spectators running out with seconds to spare. the roof caving in. the rafters buckling. the roof covered in heavy snow coming down. incredibly no one seriously injured. in colorado, the roof of the conference building crumbling from the weight. and in oregon, the roof of the elementary school gym giving way. it was empty at the time. the danger is real and here's

pounds when it is dry. 20 pounds when wet. so 2 feet of snow across a flat roof can be 150,000 pounds. in this part of the roof alone, that's like three grand pianos crashing in your home. pitched roofs are not safe. 2 feet of snow is like 9 heavy duty pickup trucks. you are an expert. how many calls? >> over 500. >> you cannot hit all of those homes. if i cannot get my local roofer, do i get up there and do it myself? >> please don't do that. it is unsafe. you don't understand under the snow is a sheet of ice. you could fall or slip off the roof and kill yourself. >> just look. homeowners sent tumbling off the roofs in an avalanche of snow while doing it the wrong way. >> if you need to do it yourself, you need a ladder. it is a two-person job. bo

it. the ground is like the roof. hold it. >> i need one of these. a snow rake. >> not everybody has one. use a shovel or rake. anything. push it away from you. push it away. >> stay on the ladder. never get on the roof. >> don't get on the roof. >> still, experts say the risk of leaving the snow is huge. here is a quick tip to melt that rooftop ice. you don't need a ladder or shovel. you need calcium chloride. rock salt. you sprinkle on the sidewalk and driveway. this will seem weird. come on in here. this is a pair of pantyhose. you may look ridiculous. you want to pour the calcium chloride into the pantyhose. tie it up like this. you take this and you throw it into the gutters on the roof. just before a storm. it will melt all of the ice away. you can do it after thece

formed. it will melt. save money on pantyhose. back to you. >> that's useful. >> thank you. who knew? up next, trolling trump. which former white house staffer seems to be taking a jab at the new president by looking back at the old one. when i first started working with capital one, my dad called them up and asked for "the jennifer garner card" which is such a dad thing to do. after he gave his name the woman from capital one said "mr. garner, are you related to jennifer?" kind of joking with him. and my dad was so proud to tell her, "as a matter of fact, she is my middle daughter". so now dad has the venture card, he's earning his double miles, and he made a friend at the company. can i say it? go ahead! what's in your wallet? nice job dad. only tylenol® rapid release gels have laser drilled holes. they release medicine fast,
