The phrase itself seems to originate from the title of the 1965 Truman Capote non-fiction novel. It is possibly derived from the term 'cold-blooded', which comes to us from the 1590s, referring to persons 'without emotion, unfeeling'.

Why do you feel cold after you come inside from the snow?

When you come inside from the snow, your body tries to maintain a stable core temperature by constricting blood vessels near the skin's surface to conserve heat. This can lead to a sensation of feeling cold as the blood vessels restrict and limit blood flow, making you feel chilled until your body adjusts to the new environment.
