cloudpiercer
by Corvuvr
Cloudpiercer adds more rain falling above the cloud layer, for players who fly or stand over the clouds.
What it does
The mod changes the weather above the cloud layer so rain falls there as well. It is a Forge mod for 1.20.1 only, released as 1.20.1-0.0.1 on 2026-02-22, and it is open source under the GNU Lesser General Public License v2.1 only. Only the client needs it; the mod does not add server logic, so a server runs without it. Public source code and an issue tracker are linked by the author.
Key features
Rain above clouds
Rain falls above the cloud layer, so the sky over the clouds changes with the weather.
Cloud-level weather
Precipitation is drawn over the clouds, so players flying above them see the same storms that roll across the lower sky.

What the author says
No more rain above the clouds, just like Head In The Clouds but for Forge 1.20.1 and without server logic (yet) My first mod, so do not expect it to be reliable or well-maintained
