cable hum after thunderstorm.........

Hi all,
Had Thunderstorms roll through early today and now I cant get the hum to go away from my cable, if I pull the feed from the wall it goes away, is this a box issue or something outside?, I rebooted the box several times with no help, could a ground breaker for the cable from Radio Shack be the answer (this has happened before but went away., thanks

If it has come and gone before it is very likely moisture somewhere along the line. If when the weather clears and things dry up the hum goes away this is probably the cause. It happens all the time to telephone lines, especially in remote areas.
