What do you do when large sections of tarpaper and plywood do need to be replaced, and then bad weather sets in? Is it safe to leave the roof in that condition for a week, when weather stopps progress? perhaps use of some temperary sealent just in case? I'll have to attempt this very soon while the weather has been unpredictable and I want to stop the leaksing areas before too much more water accumulates in winter.
I'm DIY for financial reasons. Any advice would be greatly appreciated :)

Yes, use 30 # felt and nail the felt down with plastic cap nails 3" on center around the edge and 12 " on center for the field (center area of the tar paper), if you have wind and rain use black jack to seal the over lap. For severe weather use ice shield instead of tar paper.
