It might be, yes. If it's a cold rain and you go up several thousand feet, it is very likely snowing. The temperature drops by about 6 degrees C per kilometer, so it's freezing 3000 feet up if it's about 46 at your location.

Do all mountains have snow on top?

No, to have snow on top (permanently) the height of the mountain must exceed that of the snow line for the particular latitude at which the mountain is located (the snow line is higher at the equator than it is at the poles). Mountains that do not reach this height are not permanently snow capped (they may have snow on in winter months).
