    Frozen pipes
    We moved here to lexington from Florida. We didn't have to deal with this stuff there. I woke up Friday morning and I had no water, I assume that the pipes are frozen. I really thinks last year it was colder with the ice storm but we did not have any frozen pipes there. Can I be wrong? The water company can't help. Do we call the landlord for something like this?

    Since you are renting ask the management what they are doing about fixing the poor insulation? A frozen pipe can easily burst but usually won't flood your home until it thaws. This is a ticking bomb so don't let the LL sit back
