Snow Not Covering Ground During Snowstorm

This seems like a weird issue, and I've never seen this before, but ever since swapping over to Alpha 17 on my server, I've noticed that the snow is no longer covering the ground when it is snowing. (Even in a snow biome) What I mean is that usually, the road, base blocks, grass, all of it gets covered in snow... but for whatever reason it doesn't this playthrough. I figured it might have been only my game that was having the issues, but my friend has also noticed it as well. (We live in a snow biome because we like how relaxing the snow effect in the game is.) Is there something in the config that might have been switched off to prevent snow from gathering up on objects during a snowstorm? If anyone knows anything about this I would really appreciate it.

Here's a screenshot of me looking out over the road during a snowstorm. Even during heavy snow, nothing seems to build up.

It might be a little hard to tell that its snowing, but as you can see, snow is not building up on any of the blocks.

I've searched high and low on the internet and can't seem to find any information on this.

 
Yeah I can confirm this is the case, too. I built in the snow biome myself, and my base doesn't get covered (although my footsteps sound like I'm walking in snow when walking on my blocks)
