Windshield fluid-too cold to come out?

I've been having this weird problem. It's been -1 to -15 for the last couple days and my wiper fluid doesn't come out anymore. Once it's been in the garage, the fluid will come out for a little while then it'll stop squirting. The fluid in it will work until -25 so I'm confused to as why this is happening. I checked the manual and it says as long as the car is on, the nozzles will be heated. Any ideas as to why this is happening?

under the hood, you will find the tubes going from the fluid container to the noozles. hat tube has a few Y splitter connectors, make sure all the connection at these location are secure and tight. If you check the hood and see signs of water spot, it could be there is a leak in one of the tube connector. Or just bring your car to the dealer and have them take a look. I don't think it has anything to do with weather as these fluid are antifreeze and you live in florida so it not like it is snowing. gl.
