Roof leaks because of ice?

Anyone else having roof leaks because of ice buildup on their roof? I believe we have transitioned to rain in elleck, and the house has pouring leaks in probably 10 places. The strangest shite I have ever seen.

YouTube search ice dams on roofs.
It’s happening all over that area.

My aunt and uncle are in Spring and they are having that issue. Their power was restored about an hour ago and their roof started leaking almost immediately.
Luckily, it's over the garage, so it could be worse. Still sucks.

If you have gutters, they may be full of ice, and water that runs onto them will run into the house. Really hard to find are leaks when ice wedges up shingle, that then flatten out when warm sun hits them as everything melts.

Yes. The weight of the ice will cause the roof to leak.
