I honestly have zero idea how this works!

Easy solution. SOP (standard operating procedure) - go to the bathroom and flush several times tonight. Use the bathroom farthest away from where the main enters the house (near the main shutoff valve). Then the new water in the pipes will need to get to the freezing point again. For you boys this maybe a good justification to selling the old gal you need to have a few extra brews today.
