First snow that sticks (or ice) is always the most dangerous. When I used to commute from Western Mass to Upstate New York (54 miles each way), there was a hill on I-90 going west from the Hudson river near Downtown Albany. There was always someone with summer tires trying to keep speed going up the hill, sliding out from spinning tires.

I commuted year round with my all season tires. but if it snowed, I'd get the jack out and change to the snows I kept in the trunk.
