See below: Chest pain in the cold is very woorisome for angina. Cold causes constriction of the coronary arteries and if there is underlyng atherosclerosis, chest pain/angina results. See your doctor asap.

Chest Pain/when cold: With your new onset of getting chest pain when it gets real cold, i will advice you to consult your family doctor as it may be a signal that you have heart disease.Cold air makes the arteries constrict and raise your blood pressure.With someone with undiagnosed heart condition, simply breathing in cold air can cause chest pain.So i will suggest you see your doc asap.
