It's gonna be raining at my place from 6am till 11am. Then a break from 11:30 till around 3. Think the deer will move then? Or should I hunt in the rain as well... It's gonna be cold with about a 8 mph north wind with gust of 12-13. Anyone else gonna tough it out??

It's true that you can't kill them sitting at home, but truthfully, it doesn't sound like the front is passing through, but just having a lull from 1130 until 300. I'd go and sit during the lull but wouldn't be shocked if they weren't moving real good. Now if the 300 rain stops overnight sometime, it'll be on in the morning.
Lord, please help us get our nation straightened out.

IMO. People that say you won't see deer move in the rain, rarely do or never have hunted in the rain. Freezing cold and soaking wet is no fun but if it's a light rain I'm out there. I enjoy stalk hunting with a rifle as well during rain because you can move silently and see longer distances better without shadows and sunlight distorting everything. Also, you can scout along the way without disturbing too much. Maybe one of my favorite times to hunt.
