Actually snow is more likely to come Jan/Feb. We still get some in MArch and are known to have surprise snow too.

You prob dont need to salt your drive way.

Clear it good and the a bit of sun will bring it down to asphalt. Trick is, clear it well so ice doesn't form.

Salt and sand are good for a walkway. Pay attention to what your walkways are and the salt you get as some damages concrete.

But salt is at any hardware store.

Winter tires aren't usually needed. What do you drive for a vehicle?

I wonder where on earth the misconception that all snow is supposed to happen in December comes from. My husband repeated it to me a few weeks ago talking about he was disappointed that the snowy part of the year was over. I was like "it's New Year's Day??!"

I think most people outside of New England are generally unaware of the weather differences between inland and northern New England vs coastal Southern New England.
