Please look at JMockit. It has extensive documentation with a lot of examples. Here you have an example solution of your problem (to simplify I've added constructor to Seasons to inject mocked RainOnTrees instance):

package jmockitexample;

import mockit.Mocked;
import mockit.Verifications;
import mockit.integration.junit4.JMockit;
import org.junit.Test;
import org.junit.runner.RunWith;

@RunWith(JMockit.class)
public class SeasonsTest {

    @Test
    public void shouldStartRain(@Mocked final RainOnTrees rain) {
        Seasons seasons = new Seasons(rain);

        seasons.findSeasonAndRain();

        new Verifications() {{
            rain.startRain();
        }};
    }

    public final class RainOnTrees {
        public void startRain() {
            // some code here
        }

    }

    public class Seasons {

        private final RainOnTrees rain;

        public Seasons(RainOnTrees rain) {
            this.rain = rain;
        }

        public void findSeasonAndRain() {
            rain.startRain();
        }

    }
}
