Since you want the job for non-monetary reasons (experience, resume building, networking) more than the cash, I recommend that you don't try to get out of doing the parts of the job that involve being on-site and interacting directly with the other people at the company. It is much easier to build professional relationships via face-to-face interactions.
Also, as plus_c said, you'll benefit more in the long run if you just learn how to drive in the snow. Like anything, it gets easier with practice and experience. You should be able to avoid driving in the worst conditions, anyway, since they only want you there 2x a week, if they are flexible about which two days you can go.
