I don't know if anyone is from central Iowa but I've been working out there and it's been 100 everyday damn near 90% humidity and up with 70 degree dew points.  Ridiculous

Hot and humid seems to be the trend here too. I have a bunch of wood to split and I just don't even want to look at it. I was on the roof the other day for a couple hours and it looked like I just jumped in the water when I got down. Give me cold weather any day

Yep, I have an elderly guy I rent a little ground from, he lives like over 2 hours away around Chicago. he has an old shed on the property wit the fiberglass sky lights, last couple of winds got the better of em. Of course they used tin that was only ever made by one company and they haven’t made it in over 25 years so absolutely no chance of finding any panels to match the tin, bought the closest thing I could find, old stuff was 30” coverage, new stuff is 36” so I have plenty to work with.

Pull whats left of the old, pull all the nails, pull the ridge cap, slide one side of the polycarbonate till the ridge in it is under the second ridge of the old tin, lift the sheet on the other side of poly and slip that side under a ridge, jockey back and forth a little, screw it all down, do the other side of the roof, try to place whats left of the old foam seal under the ridge cap and screw that down, thankfully I have plenty of poly far as length so have been shoving it high as possible under the ridge cap. Takes about an hour a section, 4 down 8 to go. Is absolutely miserable to do when just setting the ladder up gets sweat running in your eyes.
