Now to the driving itself: Slow the heck down.

I think this is the most important point: slow the heck down. I am from Massachusetts, and it seems to me everyone forgets this lesson every year, only to re-learn it at the year's first noticeable snow. (Maybe in Montreal, or in Juneau, the no-snow season is short enough to remember, but as far north as Mass., it seems to be too short.) When it snows you need to be going at least 10 MPH under the speed limit. After a couple months worth of driving in the snow you can use your judgment, but the first snowfall or three, do not trust your judgment. Slow the heck down.

...it's hard to get the value from previewing in rot13. I hope that's not (really) gibberish.
