The usual reasons are a partly closed interior valve on that branch, a clogged vacuum breaker at the head, or corrosion narrowing an old galvanized run to the wall. Age is the deciding factor in older housing. A plumber can tell which of the three it is quickly.

It's the utility's valve in a small buried box between the street and the house, and it isolates the service line. Homeowners generally aren't meant to operate it, since it needs a long key and a damaged stop becomes an expensive dig. If the interior main valve won't hold, that's a call to make.

It does, because the pipe feeding it sits in air that tracks outdoor temperature rather than house temperature. Once October lows average around 42 degrees that line is running cold most nights. Draining it and closing its own valve is the practical answer.

The outdoor tap itself works the same way, but on a well the pressure tank and the pump control sit in the loop, so a frozen outdoor branch can cause the pump to short cycle. That is hard on the pump. Isolating outdoor lines before the cold sets in avoids the whole chain.
