Well, after the blizzard blows by (but when you're still stuck and waiting for the roads to get plowed) is a great time to step out, set up an impromptu shelter over the bed of your truck with a tarp, a few poles, and some twine, break out the propane stove, and brew up some coffee while cooking a hearty breakfast on the griddle.
