Pipes can freeze if the temperature drops below freezing and the pipes are exposed to that temperature for a prolonged period of time.

When water freezes it expands in volume. When this happens in a closed pipe, the ice displaces the water, which increases its pressure exponentially. If this is allowed to go on for too long, the pipe will burst.

When a water pipe bursts, an immense amount of water will come pouring out and will not stop until the water is shutoff.
