It's never a bad idea. However, I've never owned snow tires and I've been fine. They really take care of the roads there when it's snowing. I know in the south they tend to freak out over a few flakes, and they don't have the equipment to keep the roads plowed when it does snow. In New England, though, there are fleets of plows and the roads, for the most part, are always covered in salt during the winter months.
ETA: Keep in mind, however, that I'm used to driving in such weather. For someone who isn't, it might be a good idea to invest in new tires.
