The answer is both meteorological and psychological.
Meteorological - Spring and Summer were typically the war seasons, and during those months, rain tends to come during the late afternoon and early evening hours.
Psychological - It's no more likely to rain on a day of battle than on any other day, it only feels more likely. For most people, battles are depressing. They involve immense amounts of death and destruction. Men have had to kill, they have watched their friends die, and they have come close to their own death. Similarly, rain is dark and depressing, so when these two phenomena converge, we notice it, contemplate it, and assign deep meaning to it. This may contribute to the emergence of human sacrifice. Ancient civilizations that relied mainly on rain to irrigate their crops tended to practice ritual human sacrifice, as well (e.g. Mesoamerican Indians, Druids, Phoenicians).
