When microorganisms are frozen, their metabolic processes slow down significantly due to the low temperature. This can lead to a decrease in their activity and reproduction rates. However, some microorganisms have evolved mechanisms to survive freezing by producing protective compounds or entering a dormant state until conditions become more favorable for growth.
Freezing sterile water will not kill any microorganisms that may be present in the water. Freezing can actually preserve these microorganisms until the water is thawed. To eliminate microorganisms, water needs to be sterilized through methods such as boiling or using chemical disinfectants.
Energy is released during freezing.
Ice storms typically occur during the winter months when temperatures are at or below freezing. They often happen in regions where warm and moist air mass meets cold air mass, resulting in freezing rain that coats surfaces with ice.
There are records of freezing rain occurring in the US dating back to the late 19th century, but pinpointing the exact first year it occurred nationwide would be challenging. Freezing rain can happen in various parts of the country during cold weather events.
The stage in which microorganisms grow and reproduce is called the log or exponential phase. During this stage, microorganisms rapidly multiply and increase in number.

It would drop below freezing during the night and then roast during the day
Freezing temperature make ice of the water in bacteria and completely stop there metabolic activity. Enzymes do not work at freezing temperature as they have no scope for movement in solid ice. So there activity halted.

Ice on roads is caused by rain freezing and/or snow on the road. The weather conditions that cause this typically happen during the winter months.
Ice forms from the freezing of water.
it will freeze and die.
A change of solid occurs during both freezing and melting.
Pipes can burst in freezing temperatures because water inside them expands as it freezes, creating pressure that can cause the pipes to crack or burst. This is more likely to happen in uninsulated or exposed pipes. Insulating pipes and keeping a steady drip of water running during cold weather can help prevent them from freezing and bursting.
