How rain works in this part of the country
The Highveld is a summer-rainfall region: the great majority of the year's rain falls between October and March, and it arrives as convective afternoon and evening thunderstorms rather than all-day drizzle. A wet summer day here is usually a bright morning followed by a violent two-hour storm. From May to August it is normal for weeks to pass with no measurable rain at all.
