When there are no blocks above the player's head, rain and snow particles behind glass blocks become invisible. However if there is a block above the player's head, these particles will remain fully visible. The block may be right on top of the player or hundreds of blocks in the air, it just has to be on the same coordinate. This visual effect also occurs with stained glass, glass panes, and ice but not with beacons. It can be easily replicated by walking back and forth from under any block during a rain storm while also looking through glass.

This still exists but I have also noticed that is also happens to some other blocks. The ones I have tested and can confirm being Slime Blocks, Honey Blocks, All Stained Glass, All Glass Panes, and Water.
This issue was reported in November 2019 and still not resolved. This is very frustrating. At this point we need a better explanation than the issue being tracked. The program never had this issue prior, so please provide some detailed information as to why and how this will be resolved thank you.
I have witnessed similar issues on Bedrock on the Xbox One with rain, but I was inside a house with blocks above my head.
I remember this bug being in the game before the Nether Update, then they fixed it, and now it's back in the game.
I tried to reproduce this in 1.16.210 on Windows 10 and I have not been able to replicate it, see picture:

This bug is only fixed on platforms with the Render Dragon engine (Windows 10, Xbox, and PlayStation), so we will leave this ticket open until Render Dragon is implemented on all platforms.
