One rainy season in California, I didn't see the sun for over a month, literally, and when the rains come here it usually rains almost continually, often with hours of torrential downpour, broken up with hours of drizzling, and sometimes a few dry hours in between cloudbursts, although we usually get a couple of sunny days in between storms.
Just trying to get a better picture of what it is like since I've only been there in the dry season, and the rains were infrequent and brief in duration when it did rain.

Sometimes it rains continuously other times it can be variable.
During 14 days in May it rained solid for about 3 or 4 days there was sunshine for about 7 days and scattered showers for 4 days.
This was considered good for this time of year I know people who have gone in May for two weeks and it rained the whole time, luck of the draw I guess.
Trust me when it rains heavy it really buckets down so bring an umbrella for the rainy season.
