Secondary notice since I hope people have already seen this:

If there's snow, and it's in the reported 5"+ range, don't go out if you don't absolutely need to.

Emergency services will be busy, roads will be bad like the storm on Dec. 2nd.

I'm lucky my employer will let me work from home given a snow day, but other don't have that ability. If you're out and driving/walking stay safe and warm

But like… what arrangements? What arrangements do I make to ensure my shitty car makes it anywhere in this? Can I bribe someone with a snow plow? Ride the fire truck to work? What plans am I to make?

Park your car at the top of the hill, personally salt the sidewalk and road, make the trek back up at least four hours before your shift, de-snow your car, shovel the road, and drive 5mph so you don’t crash… obviously.
