Your weather is extremely cold. Any pipes that are above ground and exposed or not properly protected will free. Open a single faucet and pray that you get a drip and the pipes don't crack or split.

Spring is almost upon us... next month.
Best Wishes

Have you had a look under the home? It is most likely that the plumbing is frozen above ground than below ground. Look for any exposed plumbing above ground going up into the home. Place a heat source nearby (contractor heater) and see if that thaws it out. Be ready to turn the water off quickly should there be broken pipes when it does thaw.
