What are some general considerations for where seeds would like to be around the neighborhood, around town? And is it generally best to wait for rain?

We're in the middle of a heatwave going on over a month here and I have been trying to seed some clover in patchy spots in the lawn and as a living mulch for a few of my garden beds and it has been pretty shitty trying to keep the soil moist to sprout seeds. I would definitely recommend waiting until it has cooled off and there is regular rain maybe? IDK I don't have a green thumb
