Why water comes out of nose in cold?

Cold air holds less moisture than warm air. So when you breathe it in, it can quickly dry out your airways and expose you to more irritants. This stimulates your nasal tissues to create more mucus and fluid to keep your nose moist and protect your airways. Excess mucus and fluid then drain out of your nose.
