I thought that the reason cold weather helps the spread is the higher humidity means the water droplets you spray last longer.

Air conditioning tends to produce a very dry environment which should also cause the droplets to evaporate very quickly.

Cold weather weakens your immune system.

Also cold weather has lower humidity.
