I had some ice dams that I took care of last week. I have a renovation in process that left a very small spot of open air into my attic from a heated room and the ice dams formed there. I have since covered that small hole (about 6" around) with insulation and no problems again yet.
I shoveled off the roof and put some pantyhose filled with ice melt along the edge of the roof to get the ice gone.
Pretty much everywhere is sold out of roof rakes.
