The snow and the cold are no joke. Buy yourself some good winter clothing straight off the bat. Don’t go for those cheap off brands. Oh no. You want to be warm, you want the good stuff. And remember to layer.
Depends on what you do. Plenty of people only have to walk from car door to heated building so crappy winter clothes isn’t a huge deal. There are those people that wear shorts year round based on that principle.
Years ago my battery died while I was at work. It was late shift so there was nobody else around. It had been snowing its ass off the tow companies were all backed up It was a 3-hour wait.
At sub-zero, Even in my car in my winter coat, that was brutal.
Now I carry a tightly wound sleeping bag in the trunk and a jump pack.
I have alpaca wool socks and they are just amazing. So comfortable and so warm. They were something like $22 for a pair, but they’ve held up pretty well and they’ve been worth it.

Yes, but in the car there is still a bag of appropriate winter clothes for emergencies.

“Dress for the ditch”
this guy parties.
It’s all in the socks and a good, warm hat. Wools over cotton, wet cotton from sweat or snow in cold enough weather can be dangerous.
My sister got me a llama wool beanie a few years ago, and I will sweat at near zero. That shit is WARM.
Llama (or probably alpaca) wool is no joke. There’s a reason why most yarns are a blend and aren’t 100% alpaca, it’s usually too hot.

Ideally no cotton.
