If you have no water this morning for the first time, it's most likely to do with cuts in water supply generally, and not a problem in your own house.
Am I correct in saying that if it was a problem in your house, the water would have stopped during the freeze and not during the thaw?

Update on water supply in Dublin – 28th December – 9.45 am
28/12/2010 9:41 am
There is still a severe shortage of water in Dublin arisising from many busrt pipes following from the rapid thaw on Sunday night last. The Council is working 24 hours a day locating and fixing leaks. We ask for the continued support of the public in keeping their use of water to a minimum. This situation is likely to continue for the next week.
The areas where water will be cutoff or have pressure reduced are listed below, the shut off or reduction in pressure will last from 6.00 pm (28th) to 9.00 am (29th).
Zone name:
1 Ballyboden System None
2 Slievebloom System Shut 6pm to 9am
3 Ballyfermot System None
4 Blackhorse Bridge System Pressure reductions with possible loss of water
5 Navan Road System Pressure reductions with possible loss of water
6 Mespil Road System Shut 6pm to 9am
7 Anglesea Road System Shut 6pm to 9am
8 Rialto Bridge System Shut 6pm to 9am
9 Merrion Gates System Pressure reductions with possible loss of water
10 Belcamp System Pressure reductions with possible loss of water
11 Clarehall System Pressure reductions with possible loss of water
12 Shanliss System Pressure reductions shut off
13 HomeFarm Road System None
14 Rathlin System Shut 6pm to 9am
15 Finglas System Pressure reductions with possible loss of water
16 Summerhill System Pressure reductions with possible loss of water
17 Christchurch System Pressure reductions with possible loss of water
18 Brunswick Street System Shut 6pm to 9am
19 Sillogue Tower System Shut 6pm to 9am
All of the above are subject to change without advance notice.
Customers should be aware that unlike some other utilities, water distribution systems cannot be operated and managed to the point where the exact locations and precise times at which the effects of pressure alternations (both increases and decreases) will be experienced, however we do make every effort to ensure that the times and areas effected are limited to those mentioned above.
We would like to thank people for their patience and cooperation and we would ask that people report locations where they see water running/rising to the contacts given below.
Bogus callers may use the current water problems to gain access to houses. If a member of Dublin City Council calls to a property they will always carry and produce identification. If the caller asks you to check the flow of water at the taps, close the door fully while you do so. If you are in any doubt do not allow access.
