Hunters rely on wind speed and direction, barometric pressure, and precipitation for planning and executing a hunt. Knowing how wind direction might change by the hour, or if barometric pressure is rising or falling, or if rain will worsen or turn into a drizzle helps a hunter pick the best hunting spots, pack the right gear, and make in-the-moment adjustments to their tactics based on current and forecasted weather conditions.
While rain isn’t great for hunting deer, cloudy skies are better for deer movement. Clear, bright, and cold sunny days are best for deer hunting because deer need more food and movement to stay warm instead of bedding down when it’s cold.
No exact temperature has been identified that makes deer move the most. However, temperatures above 60 degrees are when deer move the least. Depending on your location, deer may move more when it’s in the 30s, 40s, or 50s, but in general, the colder the better.
Deer are diurnal, meaning they are most active in early morning and late evening because that’s when their eyesight is most effective. Those are generally the best times to go hunting.
