When its cold the traps are more likely to dry out. Run some water through the faucets to refill them. Its basically standing water that fills the tube so gasses can not go in and out.

This is what a trap looks like. They are ment to have a small amount of water retained to fill the pipe.

Also running a couple of pichers of water down your basement drain can help if it is coming from there.
