Blizzaks are oriented towards traction on ice. They aren't very good as snow tires and even less good on bare roads. Plus they are only half a tire. Once they are half worn they're no good on ice either.
Best all round winter tire at the moment is the Continental ExtemeWinter Contact.

Nokian also makes good studless rubber.
For better bare road performance step up to Pirelli Sottozero or Michelin Pilot Alpin. Be aware that high performance winter tires grip less well on ice and handle snow less well tons studless rubber. For a daily driver get studless winter tires.
