A ridge vent for a roof includes a body having a first end, a second end located opposite the first end, a first side, and a second side located opposite the first side. The vent also includes a plurality of ports formed in the first and second sides of the body. The ports have a shape that permits the vent to be installed on the roof using a nail gun. An interlock system provides a positive and accurate interlock between adjacent vents when a series of vents are required to cover the ridgeline of the roof. The vent further provides a mechanical means for reliably mounting a filter, such as a spun-bond fabric weather filter, to the vent during manufacture and for retaining the filter in place during installation of the vent.
