Moisture. Wet snow contains more water in liquid form, which allows it to bond and "stick" with other snow. This type of snow is common when snow falls at temperatures near freezing. Dryer snow does not stick together because it is almost entirely ice crystals, and this type of snow falls at colder temperatures.

How many degrees must it be for it to snow?

It has to be 32 degree's Fahrenheit or 33 degrees the lowest. If its under 33 degrees than it will have snow and rain mixed together and it doesn't stick to the ground. Snow will stick to the ground only if it is colder. It will stick to the ground when it snows on a 36 degree only if it snows a lot like hell. If it doesn't snow like hell than it wouldn't stick on the ground.But it could also be 2 degree's and it will set.
