Blowing fuses need help ASAP

Blew the fuse for the tail lights and for the cluster lights (speedo, tach ect) I replaced the fuse for the tail lights twice tonight and still keep blowing (yes I am putting them in right). It all started with the snow lst night and I NEED the car on the road Thursday since I do most of my driving at night. They come on when I hit the brakes but stay off with the head lights on. They blow when I start the car.
I also noticed my hatch is not locking now (the bottom section that comes up and grabs the hatch is not moving and not frozen), when I hit the hatch buttom it clicks but nothing besides that.
Any ideas?

Any electronics after the fuse can cause it to blow. Have you done any modifications recently? Aftermarket radio? If the illumination wire from the stock radio isn't cut and taped, it can ground out and blow the fuse. Headlight switch, cut wire, shorted bulb, etc...
