This can't be emphasized enough. Winter tires stay softer in colder temperatures, which we get plenty of even though we don't get as much snow as most of Canada. When we do, however, it is usually wet and followed by a sharp drop in temperature. Plus the constant thawing and freezing here creates plenty of ice.
