Rain in the Valley is concentrated from November to March, so leaks most often reveal themselves at valleys, kick-out flashing, chimney and wall flashing, and tile underlayment during the first winter storms after a long dry summer has cracked sealants. That is why a stain on a ceiling rarely sits directly below the entry point, and why tracing a leak means walking the roof and the attic, not just patching above the stain.
