Based on the last ten years of weather data for Hopkinton, nights drop to freezing or below on about 114 days a year, and on roughly 22 days the temperature stays below freezing all day. The average January low is 21.4°F. Freeze damage doesn't always leak right away — a split can open up when the pipe thaws, so check exposed pipes after a cold snap.
