وَالْبَرْدِ and the cold

Here wa- joins two matched opposites, 'heat' and 'cold', as a tight pair under the same preposition. This is the wa- of pairing rather than a loose list, binding the two conditions into one 'heat-and-cold' span. The noun stays definite and in the genitive like its partner.
