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?

learn how to drive on a slippery surfaces
building on the previous one - buy a set of winter tires and if needed chains
always have spare warm clothes in the car
make sure your house gets enough warmth and ventilation to prevent mold
keep a huge bag of road salt in a garage
get yourself few sets of breathing underwear
depending on the outside temperature learn how to dress like an onion

Last but not least, learn to ski/snowboard. Best way to spend time outdoors. Also, develop a taste for a mulled wine.

Does it like, have warm breath to keep you comfortable?

I know you're joking but I'll answer that it's not a nice to sweat in warm clothing but have it cool down in skin-contact

More like the underwear that won't make you sweat and if you do, it would get the excess of moisture away from the body.
