greenhouse and snow

As some of you know I have a 6x8 Harbor freight greenhouse. I live in north east Pennsylvania we get feet of snow sometimes in the winter. I was wondering if the snow would collapse the polycarbonate panels. If it would what can I do to prevent that from happening other than taking down the whole greenhouse? :|

I've read some people use self tapping screws through the panels on those green houses to combat strong winds. How well it would hold up to the snow I don't know.

Just a thought.

Maybe just jam a few 2x4's between the ground and ceiling joists to shore it up for winter at strategic points.
