Because it's been so cold for so long, the frost depth is much deeper than usual, so the pipes that are normally deep enough to be protected, are now surrounded by frost, ice, or colder than normal air. So, it makes sense that the cold water coming from the faucet is colder than usual. So don't worry, it's not just your imagination!
