Like deer, they will be out feeding HEAVILY before a storm. We run beagles that jump & chase the rabbit back to the gun but focus on the thickest areas you find. Blown down trees, brush/lap piles, nasty briar patches. Are there hare or cottontail there? Hare will more often lay under a downed tree.
