Cool idler pulley destroyed

Do not know if was from the extreme cold, 4-8 degrees for almost a week, but this is what happens when your idler pulley bearing freezes and disintegrates eating up your serpentine belt. Made a small ticking noise when started and then went clunk then screeched loud. Car just turn 75K miles. I am replacing all idler pulleys, not going to take another chance on one blowing up again. luckily, this happened in the driveway and not on the highway or some far away place.
