The pipes usually have some air leaks in them. These air leaks when exposed can be the reason behind the frozen pipes. This is why you should cover all the gaps as well as cracks that are part of your pipe.
Turning of the exterior taps is also an important thing to do. The pipe between any tab and interior pipes ends up with freezing, the whole running pipe can explode. This is the reason you should shut down the exterior water supply.
