Winter time, whats your methods on roofing early with frost?

Winter sucks? Where? Here in Vermont we were roofing while it was snowing in South Carolina last week. 32 degrees? We might just loose some layers for that kind of heat wave!

Seriously frost sucks. here in Vermont we see frost from October and springtime until mid April. We tend to realize what orientation we are in respect to which side gets hit with the sun first... oh the warm illusive sun. Fixing 2x4's to either ends of the tarps make covering roofs fast, even with wind. Same way we hang from facia on multi story tear offs protecting walls and windows.

Its also nice to leave the buckle and rope dangling for safety first harness up as you skate on the frost.

Here in the UK this has been the coldest for 30/40 years, no mortar work, no work on metal roofs, too cold really to torch down felt -8 this morning.Another day taking it easy until the frost lifts.
USA weather on East Coasts are even worse I believe.To let you understand we have had 24 inches snow lying at one point a month ago-thats nothing compared to some states.How do you manage?
