most of the time it is caused by heat escaping from your attic. that heat melts the snow and ice and as it runs down the roof it refreezes when it reaches the bottom. some things you can do to prevent that from happening is to have insulation blown into your attic and/or have your roof vents looked at to see if they are working for you or against you. other times people use that roof heat cable and it does work well if it is done right.
