Because of all the extra light being reflected - white reflects all colours of light rather than just a few as most colours do, meaning more light is reflected to your eyes and it appears to be brighter.

Why is it so light out when it snows?

It is light outside when it snows because snow, being white, reflects light making it lighter. Black materials absorb light (for example roads can become quite hot in the summer if you've ever noticed) whereas white materials reflect light.
