You can get sick from exposure to weather without shelter, but it won't be from an infection, it will be due to tissue damage, frostbite, etc. Hypothermia is another way you can become sick from the cold, that is when your core body temperature gets too low and your circulation and other body functions slow to below the needed levels to sustain health.

You cannot get sick with a cold or other infectious disease from being out in the cold. You can only get colds from a virus.
