Plumbing: How long before pipes freeze?

I have a new, well-insulated vacation home. In the winter (Dec., Jan., Feb) the temps drop to the 20's/30's on occasion in the evening (midnight or so). As soon as the sun rises, we're back to 50's/60's.

Question is: Do I have to worry about the pipes inside the home freezing? I have 3 outdoor spigots which are covered with foam "frost protectors". All remaining plumbing is inside, within insulated walls. Will my pipes freeze if exposed to freezing temps for 6 hrs. or so?
