If common sense dictates and the Browns-Bills game of (I believe) week 14 is proof, snow slows down offenses quite a bit. It makes running and catching difficult, and the defense has to sometimes do very little to make teams go 3 and out. If the game was snowy like this at the kickoff it would be an even field, but with a two touchdown advantage the Packers won't have to do a whole lot to keep their lead.
As a side note, Ryan Grant has just made me eat my words by showing me that running in snow is indeed possible, and perhaps even preferable.
