I moved in January 1, 2022. Also coming from the south/west. It was ok. Moving in was physically not a problem. Our apartment complex salted the parking lot so we had no trouble unpacking. Plowing here is taken super seriously -- keep an eye out for "Snow Emergency" lights, which, when flashing, means there is no street parking. Keep in mind that you must re-register your car within 60 days of moving. The winter is super grey and wet. Buy some waterproof leather snowboots and be prepared to wear them. Consider vitamin D supplements and a SAD light.

Besides that, keep a shovel and brush and extra de-icing washer fluid in the car, it's useful to have. We also kept kitty litter in the car but never needed it (see above, super serious about plowing).
