The hot pipe under the kitchen sink...even left the doors open last night. Hopefully it thaws ...without damage. That -15 with 35 -40 mph winds suck It is better to die on your feet than to live on your knees.

I caught it just before the kitchen sink overflowed. Went under the house and tapped the pipes untiL I located where it froze. Set an electric heater a foot away and about six hours later the drain hawed. Mi created the problem rather than prevented a problem.
