A little late to the party, but I can add a couple more things. Every winter I go through the ritual of rediscovering what I should already know and find myself over-dressing. It takes a few runs to get everything figured out again. The apparent temperature will rise by as much as 20 degrees once you get warmed up so you can dress for a 70 degree run when it's 50 and so on. Lightweight layers are easily shed and carried, then you can put them back on after you stop.
Running in ice and snow is a bit easier with something like YakTrax Pro. They consist of rubber and metal straps that slip on over your shoes and provide traction.
