Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Often (50% - 99%)
What is your current game version number? 1.61.15.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? all *except* My First Pets Stuff pack, StrangerVille Game pack, Moschino Stuff pack and Tiny Living Stuff pack
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? there has to be snow on the ground during winter, travel with your sim to Planet Honey Pop in San Myshuno and there's snow inside the building
What happens when the bug occurs? snow appears inside the building with a roof and all connected walls (there's no holes in the roof or gaps in walls)
What do you expect to see? snow appears inside the building Planet Honey Pop in San Myshuno (and maybe other residential lots in other worlds) removing the roof or a bit of the wall of the building makes the snow disappear, but making it a functional "room" again (connecting the walls/covering the room with a roof) makes the snow appear back inside the building
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Neutral/Not Sure

- Snow no longer appears inside the Planet Honey Pop building.
Fixed in Patch 1.109.185/1.98
Please create a new thread if you have issues with other premade buildings.
Also, this fix probably doesn't apply to existing save games, just new ones.
Good Luck

FYI, this happens also when you build your own lot with the same technique, in otherwords whenever you use "fake split leveling".

This happens on PS4 also. It happens also at Disco Pan Europa in Windenburg.

How can we find the bug ourselves?
this bug happened whilst building on the 3rd floor Mid-Nowhere residential lot in Windenburg too (I was building on a house I downloaded from the gallery)
I'm dumb. I built the 3rd floor with just walls and a roof. I'm not a frequent builder so I didn't realise I had to put down the box room tool first to build a room with a ceiling.
Hence the snow inside the 3rd floor rooms

I am also having this issue on the exact same lot.....how is this STILL happening and on an official EA lot? This is ridiculous.....I have newest patch and no mods.

I noticed this issue for the first time in my Game a few days ago. And its the same premade lot "Planet Honey Pop". I havent made any changes to the lots. Its the original one that shipped with City Living.

I think this is correct, I had this bug as well and it seems to be related to the raised central platform. If you draw a wall along the left side of the platform from one wall to the opposite wall (going over the lights on the left) this removes the platform. The snow disappears (and so do some other objects). I tried some other lots from the gallery and anything that has the original central platform seems to get the indoor snow bug even if the rest of the lot is quite different.
I uploaded a fixed version of the lot to the gallery with missing objects replaced. It's under my username a_recording. Here is a screenshot of my version without the indoor snow:
There may be some other minor differences to the original EA lot that I missed. Also the lot seems to get darker once you "close it off" since it's no longer "outdoors". You may need to add some ceiling lights.

After visited Planet Honey Pop! during winter I find out odd situation. The whole floor where snow can't rain, was covered with snow.

I have same problem too. The floor also has this "odd hue" lighting as if it was outside. Clearly the game considers it semi-outdoors.
