Do you have metal or PVC pipes?
PVC. It's a fairly new addition to the house. Couple of years. I would have thought the contractor would have wrapped them. Think again.

Locate your shut-offs. When it thaws you're gonna need them.
Edit...if they did burst. They may not have, either way locate the valves.
