Sagging area or soft spot on the roof
Likely cause, what to safely try first, and whether it gets worse if you wait.
Likely cause
Structural water damage to the decking beneath the shingles.
What to try first

⚠ This tends to get worse (and more expensive) the longer it's left unaddressed — worth acting on soon.
