I prefer approach where Python is used as programming language and not as typewriter (DRY - Don't Repeat Yourself).
This is homework and all, however from conditions and terms presented here is not obvious is 2D list is requirement or design desicion. It could be much simpler to keep month names and rainfalls in different lists.
There is no need to create variables for month rainfalls. You don't need to sum manually.
To get month names, instead of typing one can use built-in calendar:
To get random rainfalls instead of typing repeating lines you can just create list with values:
If needed, it is quite simple to create list of tuples out of two lists:

>>> import calendar >>> months = calendar.month_name[1:] >>> months ['January', 'February', 'March', 'April', 'May', 'June', 'July', 'August', 'September', 'October', 'November', 'December']
To get random rainfalls instead of typing repeating lines you can just create list with values:
rainfall = [random.randint(0, 4) for month in months]It is easy to get min and max values and sum from rainfall list.
If needed, it is quite simple to create list of tuples out of two lists:
data = [*zip(months, rainfall)] # alternatively, if list of list is needed: data = [[*pair] for pair in zip(months, rainfall)]In order to get all months which have minimum (or maximum) rainfall one can find indices of items in rainfall list where item value is equal to minimum (or maximum) value and return items on same index in months list.
