The city should have organized with police to go in last night and remove empty tents. With it being the coldest night yet and first night with snow on the ground, Id bet a lot of the "occupiers" went home to the warm confines of their parents homes. (Plus with it being Friday night I wouldn't doubt if many took the opportunity to head out to a pub to talk philosophy over a few pints of beer and attempt to solve the worlds problems.)
Either use infrared cameras to see which tents have no people in them or spot check the tents to ensure the wellbeing of everyone given the cold weather.
