Assume you are saying that the lights work and dont dim while you try to crank. If so....Most likely the starter (or the solenoid on same).
Seems to favor cold weather to fail.
To start the car once... not useful as a "fix", whacking the starter with a hammer.. not hard, just solid, often results in a start, as well as confirming the problem.
you would have to crawl under, starter is at lower rear passenger side of engine next to oil pan, and exhaust pipe.
