General Mud or the Rasputitsa (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rasputitsa) happens in Ukraine during November/December, due to rain and also in February/March due to melting snow.
Right now we are entering General Winter, when people freeze to death. IDK how insulated tanks, or armoured vehicles are, but I suspect they will be colder than a witches tit. the problem for Ukrainians are that they are issued NATO uniforms (and they are not that warm) - Russians on the other hand train in Siberia for winter offensives. It gets below -40F there.
The reason the tigers did OK, is because the rains had not arrived yet. ( BTW This is the reason the Soviet tanks are lighter and smaller). Nevertheless, the other issue is that during winter, everything is visible via drones - there are no leaves to hide behind - so that brings its own problems.
