1) I had some Nokian all-weather tires years ago and they were very good in the snow. All seasons are garbage in winter conditions as has been mentioned many times in this thread. Pure winter tires will give you the best grip, but if you're mostly just doing regular city driving and don't want the hassle of swapping tires then good all-weather should be fine
2) Are those your winter or summer tires? If they're summer or all season then there shouldn't be an issue swapping just one. If they're winter, try calling some tire shops to see if they have anything in stock close enough to match your existing 3
