Default Rain affect Rut?

Well, for the Next 5 days, we are going to have 3 Days of Rain, one decent no precipitation day, and one Snowy Friday, Do you think the Rain would affect the Rut? The Temps will be in the 50' s, and then go into the Mid 40' s...thanks for any comments!

Heavy rain yes. Steady, light rain no. If it is clearing up, I' d get there quick b/c the woods will be on fire! [:-]

Where abouts are you?? I' m from central NY too (Auburn). This rain never seems to stop. I have seen squat lately. All the scrapes I' ve seen a week ago are dried up and not active anymore. Hopefully the cold weekend will kick things into gear.

the rain treats it funny up here in maine. i' ve seen some of the biggest bucks during severe rain, many average deer during misty drizzle. seems like the big ol boys like to travel around when they think no one else is in the woods.
