Hola, Nila.
Chilly = A little bit cold. You need a sweater but not a winter coat.
Cold = You need a sweater and a coat to keep warm.
Freezing = You will need a thick coat, gloves, a scarf and you will still be a bit cold. You can't really get warm when it's freezing outside.
P.s.
Rather than "Today is chilly/cold" I'd say "It's chilly/cold today."
