    Is the back part of your Home on the north side of you house? If so the water pipe supplying the faucet is probably frozen. And the rust is from a pipe in your water line being disturbed, probably from the freezing weather. The pipe should thaw soon after the weather gets above freezing for a few hours. There is a possibility that a pipe can be burst from the freezing weather.
