What is Weather Effects Backport?
This mod backports the 1.21.6 raining effect to 1.20.1 with some additions!
The weather effect appears when it is raining, snowing, and if a thunder storm shows up, the rain fog will be more darker than the normal rain fog
The mod allows you to Enabled or Disabled the raining effect with the /weather_effect command!
Don't worry about compatibility — the weather effect works perfectly with Embeddium and other mods that change the way Minecraft renders things. The mod is compatible with them.
