I would say no because you would still cause a heat island effect from the glass. You would however reduce solar radiation.
Yeah, it would definitely rain inside the dome.
Source: my dad. He was in the Air Force, and once worked in a giant aircraft hangar that was big enough to accommodate an airship. He told me that the hangar had its own “weather”, and conditions inside the hangar were announced like weather forecasts.
That was only one hangar. Even though it was uncommonly large, it wasn’t nearly as big a city block.
On an unrelated note, I wonder how long it would take the inside of the dome to get filthy from things like exhaust.
