9-5 in snow

Friends,
After my first couple weeks of snow and sub freezing temp. I'm thinking the 9-5's drivability with stock all seasons is very poor. Also have had several mornings that I have been unable to start the car due to a weak battery. (the second and only three months old from Saab dealer)
For twenty two winters I drove the Saab 99 with Hanks on the front thru snow that only the four wheel drives were negotiating. The 99 handled good in snow and I could feel the road better in it.
With good snow treads is the 9-5 ok? How bout the weak battery problem?
