My rain barrel setup in Portland split open during that cold snap in January

I had a 55-gallon plastic barrel I use for garden water, and the seam gave way after it froze solid. I lost all the water I'd saved from the fall rains. Has anyone found a good barrel that can handle freezing temps without breaking?

Switched to a thick-walled IBC tote, hasn't cracked yet.

What, you didn't want an ice sculpture?
