What Charlottetown Winters Do to Tires
Island winters combine heavy storm systems with very little shelter. Wind drives snow across open farmland and drifts it onto rural roads, and the same wind can restrict traffic on the Confederation Bridge. Between storms, freeze-thaw cycles leave a hard, slick surface on secondary roads. Because so much Island driving is on rural routes that get cleared later than urban ones, real snow traction plus ice grip is the sensible combination here.
When to switch: Late October, before the first drifting storm.
