This is an earth-based principle: before Sukkot, we still gather the fruits from the trees (palms, figs, pomegranates and olives), and the rain might interupt our harvest. Sukkot is the harvest festival, and after it we can welcome the rain, which is importent for the growth of the wheat that here in Israel is being seeded in this time of year. Have a wonderful and rainy fall! About “Morid HaGeshem”-
