There may be some nice days where the roads are dry. It would be good to take it for a run, long enough to charge the battery and work the AC compressor a bit. If you have electricity in the garage, you could put a charger on the battery every few weeks. A cold battery will self discharge at a slower rate. But self discharge rates can vary widely. Deep discharge of a battery can cause permanent damage. A dead battery can freeze and split.
As always, you need more air in the tires as the temperatures go down. This will help reduce any flat spotting of the tires from sitting in one spot. You might increase the pressure during the storage period to something more than you usual tire pressure.
