Reminds me of movies/games where time is frozen, but you don't want to start it moving again because it would be a calamity. If they thawed the water than it would further saturate everything and keep leaking.

It was warm 6 months ago. Now it's cold.
Climate change is real.
If this trend continues, climate models prove that the Earth will go extinct by 2050 unless we re-ban plastic straws.

It literally dropped below freezing one time here in the early 90s. My friend who was away wanted me to check on his place. When I got out of my 4runner, I knew that already hearing rushing water was not going to turn out well.

Water pipes were in the ceiling of the first floor, with bedrooms in the basement below. No longer freezing, so the whole ceiling came down and water poured out the front door when I opened it.

Insurance Involved

I Believe There's A Whole Lot More To This Tale Of Woe

My first thought as well.
A creative twist on Jewish lightning.
