We got a bunch of freezing rain and, at my house, just a couple of inches of snow on top of that. The ice was so thick and heavy that it busted a lot of tree branches, power lines, etc. Several hundred thousand people in STL lost power (not me, thankfully), and some of them still won't have it resto...

Wesley, if it's really wrecked, try slicing the rubber open and looking inside. We had to do that with one of Goad's switches that got badly kinked. By slicing it open near the kink, we (actually I) were able to find the spot that was buggered up and straighten it out. Slice it open? I know it sound...
