After a long day of travel I arrived home to find that I had a bust pipe in my crawl space. I was able to shut the main water line off to stop the ongoing water leak. The pipe is in the craw space so I’m uncertain if the line will freeze without running water - unlikely to find an emergency plumber tonight. Any thoughts?
UPDATE: Alright, so I was able to find a plumber to fix the pipe. Unfortunately my pipe near the main shut off valve also froze but this was replaced. No troubles with the water heater as the tank was still full. Definitely going to add some insulation around my pipes to try and prevent this in the future!

Same thing here but in my basement. My plan is to start calling plumbers tomorrow morning.
