Wow, that’s not much rain! Really, you want to focus on humidity and wind speed. If winds are low, temperature are cool, and humidity is high(for your area) ants will fly.

In the tropics ants fly at night because its so hot. So maybe there they fly at night too? And definatly after rain and its humid.
