Anything related to water frozen in basement is a serious issue, it has to have immediate attention.

The humidifier is even simpler. The drain hose is supposed to have water go thorough the humidifier filter inside the housing and then goes to drain when furnace is on. 1 U( a* \" A- G( S: m; C$ b {* ^6 P6 R8 Y. z
If there is no crack at the housing connector, just re-do the connection when the furnace is off. 1 n2 g u, o, n9 E7 r' n9 x4 F! _& U! r) ~$ y' k
Not a big issue..
