If any of your water lines run remotely close to the exterior of the house or are in areas that can get cold and are not insulated leave a small stream of water dripping, so your lines don’t freeze. If it’s a Kitchen faucet with cabinets underneath leave the cabinet doors open, so heat from the room will help permeate the cold area.

Unrelated to extreme cold, but related to winter: learn about roof raking. And ice dams. I had leaks into the interior of the house from ice dams my first winter here because growing up in the South I never heard of such things.
