A refrigeration system requires air flow to condense the vapor refrigerant to a liquid, The condenser coil has a fan that blow air across the coil, this coils surfaces become obstructed over time with dust and hair etc and will inhibit operation or stop it from cooling all together if obstructed enough.

Refrigerant level can be low too , but is less common unless damaged or old. Compressor volumetric efficiency becomes degraded over time due to wear.

The condenser fan motor can be bad too if not operating.

The defrost system may be not defrosting the evaporator coil due to a timer or heater, it can be settings as well, many times people mistakenly set both dials to max cold, this actually maes the refrigerator box warmer, if you will notice the thermostat says 1-10 and on/off, and will control the temps, the 2nd dial is a trap door that opens /closes to allow freezer air to migrate to the refrigerator box.

set both to the medium settings.

Yes, cold weather can affect a refrigerator if it is located in an unheated area, causing it to work harder to maintain the set temperature. Extreme cold temperatures can also cause the refrigerator to run more frequently, potentially leading to increased energy consumption.
