A roofing system of the present disclosure has a first shingle layer and an overlaid layer a portion of which overlays the first shingle layer. Additionally, the roofing system has a first shingle in the first shingle layer, the first shingle having a first channel and a first protrusion in an upward-facing surface and the channel is contiguous with the protrusion, the channel and the protrusion formed on an interlocking end of the first shingle. Further, the roofing system has a second shingle in the overlaid layer, the second shingle having a second channel and a second protrusion in a downward-facing surface and the second channel is contiguous with the second protrusion such that the first channel is configured for receiving the second protrusion and the second channel is configured for receiving the first protrusion.

1. A roofing system, comprising: a first shingle layer comprising a first plurality of shingles;a second shingle layer comprising a second plurality of shingles wherein each of the second plurality of shingles has a portion of which that overlays a portion of one the first plurality of shingles;a first shingle in the first shingle layer, the first shingle having a single first rectangular channel and a single first rectangular protrusion in an upward-facing surface and the first rectangular-channel is contiguous with the first rectangular protrusion, the first rectangular channel and the first rectangular protrusion formed on an interlocking end of the first shingle, the first shingle comprising a slot that traverses the first shingle and the slot is configured to traverse the shingle underneath the first rectangular channel;a second shingle in the second shingle layer, the second shingle having a single second rectangular channel and a single second rectangular protrusion in a downward-facing surface and the second rectangular channel is contiguous with the second rectangular protrusion such that the first rectangular channel is configured for receiving the second rectangular protrusion and the second rectangular channel is configured for receiving the first rectangular protrusion wherein the first rectangular protrusion is dimensioned such that it extends a distance above an upward surface of the second shingle,wherein when interlocking the first shingle and the second shingle, a fastener is inserted through the first shingle, the second shingle, a nail strip inserted within the slot, another portion of the second shingle, and through a roofing substrate, and wherein the first shingle is flush with the second shingle so that such at a bottom of the first shingle and the bottom of the second shingle are fully attached to the roofing substrate and no opening exist between the shingles and the roofing substrate. 2. The roofing system of claim 1, wherein the second shingle comprises a slot configured for receiving a nail strip. 3. The roofing system of claim 2, wherein the nail strip is comprised of a self-healing substance. 4. The roofing system of claim 1, wherein the first shingle channel extends a width of the first shingle. 5. The roofing system of claim 1, wherein the first shingle is configured for interlocking with the second shingle such that only a portion of the second shingle is atop a portion of the first shingle. 6. The roofing system of claim 1, wherein the second protrusion is configured so that it does not extend beyond the downward-facing surface. 7. The roofing system of claim 1, wherein a heating element is disposed within at least one of the first or second shingle. 8. The roofing system of claim 1, further comprising a central controller. 9. The roofing system of claim 8, wherein the central controller is configured for receiving an ambient temperature reading. 10. The rooting system of claim 9, wherein the first shingle comprises a heating element. 11. The roofing system of claim 10, wherein the central controller is configured to control the heating element. 12. The roofing system of claim 1, farther comprising a microcontroller coupled to the first shingle. 13. The roofing system of claim 12, wherein the microcontroller is electrically coupled to a heating element, and the microcontroller is configured to activate the heating element based upon data received from a central controller. 14. The roofing system of claim 1, wherein the first shingle comprises a homing device. 15. The roofing system of claim 14, wherein the homing device transmits data indicative of a location of a residence or business that comprises the first shingle. 16. The roofing system of claim 15, wherein the homing device is configured to guide an airborne vehicle to the location of the residence or business. 17. The roofing system of claim 1, wherein the first shingle comprises a foam core. 18. The roofing system of claim 17, wherein the foam core is coated with a weather-resistant material.
