Riptide tridents don't work in biomes that snow despite working at altitudes that can snow in other biomes

The bug

When you try to use a trident with the riptide enchantment while it's snowing in a biome like, for example, ice plains, you'll notice it doesn't work. However, in other biomes at y=300 (where it can snow) you can use the trident.

I'm pretty sure this is WAI, as you need water to hit your body. The snow thing is a whole other issue.

The problem is that you can use it at high altitudes where it is snowing.
I was flying with an elytra at a high altitude where it's is snowing and I was boosting myself with a riptide trident. Suddenly, it didn't work anymore because I entered a snowbiome.
If it doesn't work in snowbiomes, it shouldn't work at high altitudes where it snows as well.

Confirmed for 1.13.1.

confirmed for 18w43c
