help --liner rip in winter; pool losing water and walls buckling

I am located in Pa with a 24' round Ag pool. Apparently, the liner ripped and is leaking water with about 2' remaining... The walls are starting to buckle (they looked rippled in spots). Somehow the winter cover is still on but the ice chunks (which are huge) are jutted inward toward the center of the pool. what can I do??/ There is no way of removing all of that ice off of the pool but I am concerned for the pool walls. Anyone have any suggestions?? help!!!

Blondie, sorry this has happened!:mad:

I think the best thing you can do to save the walls is to disconnect the cover and let it fall into the pool. The weight of the ice is putting tremendous pressure on the top of the wall, I don't know if they are ruined, but if they're still salvageable get the pressure off of them ASAP!

Since you can't see the liner, you don't know if it's trashed or fixable, come spring when you can see what's going on, we'll help more.

Again, sorry this happened!!

Yeah, that's about the best you can do.
