De la neige, mais de pluie?

This is because the first sentence is affirmative, and the second one is negative.

In the negative form, the article will disappear. This is not restricted to words describing the weather.

Compare:

Il y aura de la neige

Il n’y aura pas de neige

Il y a de la pluie

Il n’y a pas de pluie

J’ai bu de l’eau

Je n’ai pas bu d’eau
