Well being from New England I think I can help you. Snow is removed primarily from the roof of a building to lessen load on structural members. Put simply it is removed to prevent collapse of the structure. I see no reason why this would be any different at the White House then any other structure.
Snow insulates the roof, keep the heat from radiating out. That's why an igloo works.
well you can`t really get snow off the roof but if your house is warm enough the snow melts, i`m not saying to turn up the heat right now but when your house does get warm the snow will melt.
To shed snow.

In removing snow on your roof, there are two options. First is by hiring a roof snow removal personnel. Second is by doing the task by yourself. All you need is a roof snow rakes which is available on the market.
So that rain snow and animals don't get into your house and to preserve a comfortable temperature to live in.
They basicly were just minners, mining for jewels untill snow white came into their house and started cleaning. Which at that they gave snow white shelter.
That depends on the roof, but the snow simply has to exceed the maximum amount the roof was designed to carry.
Heavy snow can damage a roof if it sits too long. Snow can cause structural damage that can lead to leaks or, worse, the roof falling in. When a roof falls in, it can cause injury and ruin possessions inside the home. Water damage can lead to damaged property due to water, moisture or mold. Roof snow removal can safely remove snow before problems happen. Snow should be removed as soon as possible to prevent damage to the roof and the structure of the building.
Yes. Up to 20-40 degrees in the top part of your house. If its cold climate get dark to help melt snow on roof and white for hot climate to deflect the sun. or a grey type for in the middle. Then again alot of houses dont look good with white looking shingles. Get what looks good and try to go light or dark the most you can to save on them bills...
Snow can make a roof collapse if it is enough. You want to be careful and make sure you remove the snow from your roof if you get bad weather.
