I placed a mural in a basement room so a vamp could use it and got the same result.

@LadyDarkSorrow I get this too and I can't find any areas on the walls or roof that would be letting snow in.

@LadyDarkSorrow I think this is because the main area ofPlanet Honey Pop is not considered a room by the game - thats how they made the split level, and why you cant pick it up. So I don't think its related to the op.
but i have had the same problem as op, not being able to paint indoor murals due to outdoor snow.

What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Everything except Parenthood and Moschino Stuff
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Go to Planet Honey Pop in the winter, while it's snowing.
What happens when the bug occurs? There is snow inside the venue as if outside.
What do you expect to see? No snow inside the building.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Yes
Please describe the patch or change you made. I started noticing after the Realm of Magic patch.
So I went to Planet Honey Pop in San Myshuno while it was snowing and the entire floor of the building had snow covering it. There was no option to make snow angels or anything, so the snow wasn't recognized like it is outside, just the visual effects were there.
I don't have any mods or CC in my game. I had a few pieces of CC in the game a while back, just to view them in CAS, but took them out and deleted the cache files. I used a simple mod to unlock pointed ears in CAS one time, made a few Sims, and took the mod out then deleted the cache files. I've played this lot several times and never had this issue. I suspect it's the result of the Realm of Magic patch.

@LiELFI've seen this too, but before Realm of Magic, so I think it's been an issue for a lot longer. Maybe even since Seasons itself.
It happens when there's snow cover outside, but because the interior floor of Planet Honey Pop is sunken (they removed the foundation inside) that area seems to also get covered in snow too.
A similar thing happens at Discotheque Pan Europa in Windenburg, because that also has a similar removed foundation sunken floor. But only half of that is covered in snow because apparently having a proper roof above it and not just a flat flooring roof prevents the snow indoors.
It's definitely a bug because having any kind of roof above, either hipped or flat should stop indoor snow.
