Rain particles on top of desert/snowy biomes at y=255
Rain particles appear on top of blocks at y=255 when weather is active, even in snowy biomes or biomes which don't have rain.
Environment
Max OSX Yosemite, Java 7 update 71
Created Issue:
Raining on top of desert
Rain particles appear on top of blocks at y=255 when it is raining, even when it is in a desert.
What i expected to happen:
No rain particles to appear on top of the block at y=255 when it is raining since the block is in a desert.What actually happened:
Rain particles appeared on top of the block, despite it being a desertSteps to reproduce:
1. Find a desert biome (or create a super flat world with the desert preset).2. Get a block at y=255. Since the game will not let you place the block manually, you will have to use the setblock command by typing:
/setblock ~ 255 ~ quartz_block
(you can use any block)3. Make it rain by using:
/toggledownfall4. Observe the rain particles appear in the desert biome.
This bug more effects map makers since commands are required (and thats how i found this, in a map i am making). It effects the ascetics.
I believe this happens due to this being on top of the desert instead of in it as the desert stops at y=255.

Cannot reproduce in 1.8.1-pre4.Can confirm in 1.8.1-pre4
Confirmed also in Mesa Plateau F. The block can only be placed there using /setblock.
It is possible due to the rain not able to access the biome in and below the block, because it is above world height.
Seems to be fixed in 1.10.2, possibly earlier.
