Various linkages in a car can "stick" in cold weather when the grease or other lubricant becomes cold. This applies to locks, accelerator linkages, etc.

You can often solve the problem by dissolving the old lube with brake or carb cleaner. There is no need to oil the linkage.

Cold snowy weather is multiple things. Most temperatures below about 45 degrees feel cool/cold to us. So in order for it to snow it must be below 34 degrees (32 degrees to stick to the ground). Because it is snowing you can already infer it is cold outside. Then either a constant snowfall or flurries could be called cold snowy weather.
