Shoveling snow is a real halakhic concern, since not shoveling endangers others. Some poskim even say you’re allowed to plow snow on shabbos when it’s an issue of public safety.
The Sefer haNoten Sheleg brings down that gedolim such as Reb Chaim Volozhiner and the Chofetz Chaim didn’t feel shoveling snow was beneath their kavod.
