If they're still producing any power, they'll have some self heating just through waste.
I'm fairly certain that solar panels catch some power off of infrared and the like, so they should still be getting a little bit warm. Snow is a great insulator, so that heat has nowhere to go but melt base layer of snow off.
After that I imagine it's like a glacier, slipping on a small layer of water
