Ice is frozen on the sprayers, blocking the holes?

Definitely snow and ice covered. Unblock them..they will work unless the fluid is also frozen. So far, it hasn't been cold enough to freeze the fluid. Make sure you go to Wawa or Pep Boys and get the orange, winter fluid..it doesn't freeze below zero.

this happened to me last year. simultaneously my rearview mirror auto-tinting stopped working as well as my washer fluid. i took it back to the dealer...

... it seems that there was not enough anti-freeze in my washer fluid (too much water added by newb at dealership during last oil change??) so the fluid froze... and in turn, the fuze blew when i tried to wash the windows.

dealer changed the fuze... filled with straight washer flruid... no problem since.
