Having your troughs clear is important to get you through the winter months. Leaf and silt can block the flow of water and cause ice back-ups.  If you neglected to clean it before the weather got cold you can tap it out with a rubber mallet of the butt end of a wooden handle. This will lift the ice out without damaging the aluminum trough.  Here are some other ideas that might be helpful too.
