Weather should be OK in July on the Gulf Islands (Ko Tao, Ko Pha Ngan, Ko Samui). Not too many Islamic rebels there to spoil your holiday either...

In a normal year, as dom says, the southern Gulf islands are usually a couple of months short of their wet season in July. Elsewhere travel is usually okay - in most other places July is a fair bit drier than Sept and Oct (and even these are usually okay for travel). Lots more info in the link below.
Rebel stuff has only been a real issue in provinces much closer to Malaysian border than holiday spots.

How does the weather know to just rain in the morning and the evening but not in the afternoon?

Sorry but the weather told me it's planning on afternoon rainfall in July.
