===During the winter===
# In Israel one should ask for rain in Birkat HaShanim (Barech Aleinu) with the words Ten Tal UMatar LeBracha starting from the 7th of Cheshvan and continue until the first day of Peasch. However, outside of Israel, one should begin to ask for rain only starting on Dec 4th (and Dec 5th on a leap year). <ref> S"A 117:1 </ref>

===During the summer===
# During the summer one should not add in the request for rain (Ten Tal UMatar LeBracha) and if one did then one must repeat Shemona Esreh. <ref> S"A 117:3 </ref>
# Outside Israel one isn't supposed to begin requesting rain until December 4th but if one did add it between the 7th of Chesvan and December 4th one should repeat Shemona Esreh with a stipulation that it should be a voluntary prayer. <ref>Mishna Brurah 117:13 </ref>

# If one is unsure whether one said VeTen Tal Umatar or not, if it's within 30 days, we assume one didn't say VeTen tal and so one has to repeat, however, after 30 days, one doesn't repeat. <ref> S"A 114:8 regarding Mashiv HaRuach. Mishna Brurah 114:37 writes that regarding VeTen Tal there's not 90 davenings in 30 days (because of Shabbat and Yom Tov), there's a dispute whether 30 days is sufficient and concludes that we hold leniently that after 30 days it's assumed that one says it correctly. </ref>
