Have the temperatures dropped? If it's near freezing and you still have summer tires, you can't expect the same level of traction.
And if you have winter tires, they tend to break loose (or at least squirm) on dry pavement when subjected to 300 ft lbs of torque.
Either way, I'd be a bit more careful.
