but did it freeze last night was it col,d?? if it had any moisture in it and it froze last night, that could be the problem, I don't know the weather in VA right now. Otherwise if it didn't, that's just odd.

did you turn it really hard to the left to force it? do you live around ice? can you unlock it form the inside?

Try spraying some lock de-icer in there or some WD-40.
You still didn't tell us if it was cold last night though.......
