Okay, don't panic! How long have you had your car battery? Its sounds like a battery issue. Cold winter temps. will drain the battery starting at 0'c. Best to disconnect battery, bring it in doors during winter. Buy a good brand battery it should make things easier. Worse case it may be the alternator, ask a mechanic for advice. Happy Motoring!
