Hi ho, hi ho ...

...The driveway's clear of snow.

Again.  More or less.  (It's still snowing sporadically.)  And the berm across the driveway of the house across-the-street-and-one-downhill removed.  And what was left of the berm of the house across-and-two-down, after pushing the folks from Massachusetts and their minivan with "all-season" tires back out into the road so that I could clear the berm they were stuck in so they could make it up the driveway.

Lesson one of driving in northerly climes:  All-season tires aren't.

All-season tires might get you through the winter in DC, or Delaware.

They won't in New England.

What are these "all season tires" you speak of?

It's a tire industry myth, sort of like the tooth fairy, only different. They're supposed to handle all weather conditions well.
