Agree, summer is the worst time. Fall is by far the best, followed by

When I lived up there in the frozen north (Md), the time to throw
grass seed was over the last snow of the season, (typically around
Easter). The seed would sink down in the snow so the birds would not
get it and when the snow melted, it germinated the seed. Spring was
always rainy there.
