I grew up in NY and lived there until a year ago, so snow driving is nothing new to me. And skiing in Ellicottville, NY was a regular college pastime, necessitating more than one 20 mph whiteout drive back to Buffalo up Rt. 219.
The only bad part of the trip is US 19 in WV. I've driven that in winter before, and it's not nice.
Fortunately the current tires do okay in deep snow as long as I'm light on the throttle. It's the light stuff where they spin in. I'm not the world's best driver (okay at hypermiling), and my car isn't ideal, but it is heavy, FWD, with the skinniest OEM-size tires on it, so I'll muddle through.
Besides, less mileage is a good thing. Shorter and hillier! Thanks for all the advice, folks!
