Before I started using a CPAP (with heated humidifier), I also had this type of problem every winter.
I suspect that your sinuses are getting too dry. Irrigation before you go to bed (and maybe when you wake up in the morning) will help. So will applying saline gel inside of both nostrils before going to sleep.

Nasal irrigation kits are available at most local drug stores, as are saline nasal gels such as Rhinaris (my preference) or Ayr nasal gel.
