In South Africa Rainfall depends upon the region. Starting from South the Cape Province has a Mediterranean type of climate and rains during Winter season ( May/June/July/August ) and the average rain is normal . In the desert regions like Karroo rains very little. In the Qua-Zulu Natal there is more than enough rain and the region is normally very green. In the Johannesburg/ Pretoria region that is the financial heartland of South Africa rains mainly in Summer ( November/December/January/February) and the rain is normally average . This is a Subtropical climate. In general South Africa has less rainfall to satisfy the needs of the country. With the warming of the Globe rain fall patterns started changing for the worst. I hope a weather expert can give more details.
