Unpredictable weather
Today, during my Chinese class, I heard the rumbling of thunder. I thought it might rain. Although the rainy season has already finished in Taiwan, we sometimes have showers in the evening. Just as I thought(I was right!) , I found it rained after class. But fortunately, it only rained a little, not showers. So I hurried home. Heavy rain is so annoying because it makes my clothes totally wet!! I was relieved that I was able to get home without getting wet.
It’s hard to predict the weather in Taiwan(The weather in Taiwan is unpredictable), so I have to bring a folding umbrella with me every day. And I like jogging, so the timing of my jogging is important. How about the climate in your country?

Unpredictable weather
Today, during my Chinese class, I heard the rumbling of thunder. I thought it might/suspected it would rain. Although the rainy season has already finished in Taiwan, we sometimes still have occasional showers in the evening. Just as I thought (I was right!) , I found it rained after class, but fortunately, it only rained a little, not heavily showers. So I hurried home. Heavy rain is so annoying because it makes my clothes totally wet!! I was relieved that I was able to get home without getting too wet.It’s hard to predict the weather in Taiwan (The weather in Taiwan is unpredictable), (repetitive!) so I have to bring take/carry a folding umbrella with me every day. And I like jogging, so the timing of my jogging is important. How about the climate in your country?

Unpredictable weather
Today, during my Chinese class, I heard the rumbling of thunder. I thought it might rain. Although the rainy season has already finished in Taiwan, we sometimes have showers in the evening. Just as I thought (I was right!), I found(?) *1 it rained after class. But fortunately, it only rained a little, not showers. So I hurried home. Heavy rain is so annoying because it makes my clothes/my clothes get *2 totally wet!! I was relieved that I was able to get home without getting wet.It’s hard to predict the weather in Taiwan (The weather in Taiwan is unpredictable) *3, so I have to bring a folding umbrella with me every day. And I like jogging, so the timing of my jogging/jogging before it starts raining *4 is important. How about the climate in your country?
* 1 "I found it rained after class" sounds strange but not because it's wrong. It might be British English which is why I'm unfamiliar with it, but personally I would just omit this part. The "I found" sounds like a shorthand way of saying "I found out" (found out: discovering/learning something surprising/on the contrary either on your own or after being informed by someone else) which seems like an odd thing to say here.
* 2 "It makes my clothes totally wet" isn't wrong but "because my clothes get totally wet" is a little more natural in my opinion.
* 3 The part you put in parentheses isn't necessary since you're essentially just saying the same thing twice. You can use either of the two sentences you wrote, but saying it twice is redundant.
* 4 "So the timing of my jogging is important" isn't wrong but it sounds a little odd. "So jogging before it starts raining is important" sounds more natural.
