I wouldn't worry about it until you get three feet or if it also rains hard and the snow soaks up the water and retains it. My experience is people do more damage with shovels and brooms than than the snow does. Have broken two sky-lites that way when shoveling from a step ladder. If you do get on the roof with snow, remember it's rounded or crowned so it's very easy to come sliding off of it.

This is very true, several years ago we had 3 ft of wet snow and and ice on the MH roof. Commercial roofs were collapsing and snow rakes were all sold out. I decided to just shovel off the roof because I was more worried about the old brittle plastic covers on the AC's than the roof itself collapsing. I the process I cracked both covers removing the snow. After repairing them in the spring I now just let the snow melt.
