Good morning! Another snowstorm is coming Saturday. You’re welcome.

Here’s what’s news on a slow-ish Thursday:

Yet another roof has collapsed, this time a house in JP, under the weight of snow. (No one was hurt.) The Globe reports on “an unprecedented wave of structural failures across the state linked to the season’s seemingly endless supply of snow, rain, ice, and sleet.” (Get a look at the photo.)

Not that I needed to tell you, but all this snow is starting to raise tempers. Two men where shoveling in the Back Bay and got into an altercation over throwing snow. Police said one man threatened the other with knives and was arrested.

As I wrote earlier, Rep. Barney Frank will seek re-election in 2012. (My colleague is digging up the audio of Frank telling WBUR he’s tired of getting the question.)

The city has a new head of human services. Daphne Griffin will oversee services for homeless people, veterans, women and young people in Boston.

Universal Hub tracks down and interviews Dan Sternof Beyer, the artist behind those mysterious and beautiful snowdecahedrons around Boston.
