I'm in a similar situation. Best guess is that the service supply line from the curb is (mostly) frozen somewhere along the line. Not sure what to do besides wait a couple more days to hope it thaws as there's no easy way to access the pipes. Would love to hear if anyone else has dealt with such issues before.

Yeah, the thing is that the bathroom is upstairs. Everything in the kitchen and basement works fine so it seems like probably not a water main issue? Will probably end up waiting it out for the weekend before calling plumber

Try cleaning out the faucet aerator. Pipes leading to my third floor bathroom froze and had low pressure. Cleaned the aerator and it’s back to normal.

And this is the problem with the new plastic water lines. Used to be you could throw some rods down onto the line and run electrical current through them to thaw out. Not anymore.
