New lawn is very vunerable to frost unfortunately. This is a but early to start treating the lawn, but you could try aerating it now, which might help. When it's less wet in a month or so and starts growing properly see if it starts to recover. You can use a lawn rake to rake out dead grass. If it's really dead in patches, you might have to dig out those patches, turn the turf over then re seed on top.
