Acclimatation

Canadian here , why is it that at the beginning of winter I can barely be outside without shivering intensely but by the end of winter I can handle it. What is actually happening to my body to create this acclimation?

On a side note, I always thought it was interesting how, in the winter, if you set your thermostat to 21C (70F) it can feel cold in the house, yet if it was 21C in the house in the middle of summer you’d love it.
