I've seen a few videos of people wondering why snowballs aren't melting with flame.
First, when the snow has enough humidity in it the snow can clump around the liquid, since the snowflakes individually aren't compressed into ice, there are gaps for the melt to fill before it will drip away.
People are using Bic lighters or candles for the flame, flames which leave soot behind.
As others have noted, snow acts as a good insulator, and this type of display is only showing that, not that there is anything wrong with the snow.
