If you never lived where it snows and were moving North to where it does snow, what would you have liked to have known? What would you do to prepare?

Everyone else has covered the important stuff, so I’ll just recommend that, especially if you have kids, you identify the local sledding hill and get a sled, snow pants, warm coat, snow boots, gloves and hat. If you’ve gotta live in it, make sure you enjoy it when it comes!
Don’t skimp on the winter clothes for your kids. If they’re properly dressed they’ll be outside all day. Good for you and good for them.
Reima is a good brand but REI house brand stuff is good too and cheaper. Wool layers, waterproof outers. Mittens are warmer than gloves.
