Lots of threads on prepping your car for the winter on this forum.

It depends if you plan to park it for the duration, or drive it when the weather is nice. I personally recommend driving it when possible (every week or two). Cars that sit (especially, if you don't prep them for it), tend to have problems from things crystalizing, hardening, etc.

If you will be driving in temperatures below 40°, even if it is dry out, you should get snow tires, or at least all-seasons. The rubber compound in summer tires hardens below 40°, and if you take a corner too fast it's like ice skating in two tons of metal. At the very least, drive it sensibly until the tires heat up a bit when it's cold out.
