when the rains come

I don't know where these "late summer rains" fall. Up here they
start in October, which is fall.

We occasionally get a light rain in August and September, but not
enough to split the tomatoes.

**I wondered about the August rains, too. Here on the NorCal coast
rain starts in late Oct, if we're lucky. Usually can count on rain in
Nov.
Usually.

I don't think we get rain in Aug or Sept.
