Default Snow / Sleet question

Ok, heres the forcast:

Temps currently 42 deg. dropping to 30-35 tonight
snow / sleet mix on and off all night with sleet for the morning
NE wind currently 5-10 mph
NE winds 10-15 mph by morning

Question: Would you go for a morning hunt and why?

I personaly think the deer will be heading for beds before first light and am torn between going out early tommorow morn or waiting for 9am-noon and sitting for the cruisers.

If I get up for coffee at 4:30 and the nasty is still nasty, I may do some stalking on public.
