deep-freezes
Stores at subzero
Deep-freezes is the plural of deep-freeze, a freezer that maintains very low temperatures for long-term storage, or the verb form meaning to preserve by freezing at such temperatures.
Figuratively, to deep-freeze something is to suspend it indefinitely: The project has been deep-frozen until funding improves.
A deep freeze can also describe extreme cold or a state of suspended activity: Relations between the two countries entered a deep freeze.
