We feel warmth through two different ways, by radiation and by thermal conduction. Even on a sunny day with plenty of radiation, we can feel cold because the air is cold. Air, being mostly transparent to light, takes a lot longer to heat up by radiation, as compared to you, so it tends to stay cold. On such a cold day, step into a shadow and notce how much colder it seems when there is no sunlight.

The tilt of the planet in its orbit is such that the sunlight falls on us at a shallower angle. Thus, the same amount of solar energy is spread out over a larger area. It feels less warm.

The sun is further away from the earth in winter months. The air current and wind also play a role in temperature. Those three factors together are why it is colder now.
