-SHRA means light rain shower
FEW means only few clouds on the sky
SCT means scattered clouds, but still not overcast
CB is warning about towering clouds cumulonimbuses with possibility of the strong updraft or downdraft

Your METAR doesn't describe heavy rain or thunderstorm. For thunderstorm and heavy rain You need TSRA or +TSRA in the METAR.

I have the issue since Beta #8 that i only have Rain in Sim after starting AS 1 time :p
If I start P3D (4.5 HF3) and try to simulate Grey and Rainy, no rain. After starting AS 1 time, close it again and try the preset Grey and Rainy, Rain is here.

Is there something known?
