Wise Old Thumper
Whilst there is snow on the ground many of the small mammals that rural and suburban (and even urban) foxes rely on for a large part of their diet are not around. Mice, rats, etc and even pigeons will try and hide away and keep warm - making it more difficult for foxes to get their normal diet.
So they will be prepared to put more effort and time into getting into hutches and runs - and will also come out at unexpected times of day to do so.
I know its fun seeing buns in the snow but make sure they are secure at all times !!!
You can also 'use' the snow to see whether foxes do visit your garden/locality by looking for their tracks - may be an eyeopener for some people that think there are no foxes in their area!!!
