Snow is frozen rain, which means the colder it is, the more likely it is to snow! This is why rain melts snow, as it is warmer. Snow is just rain, but a bit colder, so it's frozen. If it's very cold, below 0 degrees Celsius, and it doesn't rain but the clouds go dark, it is more likely to snow heavily and thickly, than to rain.
Hope that helped you!
