am I screwed? Would it help any if I disconnected it now? Surprise surprise, the water in the hose is frozen, what are the chances that the line in the crawl space that it's connected to didn't burst?

It won't bust until it thaws. If the water in your house is still running you should be OK. Go ahead and disconnect it if you can.

Just sayin

I'd say the chances are slim......it happened to me once. :O

Easy enough to check......wouldn't the carpet around that wall be soaking wet? Ours was.

at least this crappy house has a crawl space, so if it does bust, it'll just fill up under the house, but I have had enough plumbing problems in the last couple of months.
