why we use colder instead of coldest please explain me
colder is the comparative form of the adjective cold. The weather is cold. The weather is colder (implies THAN something; than yesterday, than last year, etc.) The word coldest is the superlative of the adjective cold. It is the coldest weather, implying ever, this year, etc.

Now, if the 2nd had said "When winter comes, the days are the coldest." That would have been correct.
