Current conditions don't matter nearly as much to me as how the current conditions compare to the recent trend.
If things are going to get bad, or if things are getting better, then I expect the coyotes to move, so I want to be hunting. For example, if temp and pressure is dropping before a storm moves in, I want to be hunting. If the temps are warming after a long cold snap, I want to be hunting. If the wind dies down after a week or so of gusting, I want to be hunting. If it snowed like crazy yesterday, but isn't today, I want to be hunting. If it rained
Alternatively, if the weather is bad after it had been better, or expects to be better tomorrow, then usually the coyotes aren't moving, so neither am I. For example, if a cold front moved in over the last two days, bringing freezing rain, bitter wind, and snow, and it's still nasty, I'll just stay home until the weather breaks.
If weather stands stable, like a cold front moves in and hangs out for a week, there might not be much action that first day or two, but eventually they gotta get moving to find food, so once it's here, I'm back to hunting.
But, like has been said - you're not going to bag any fur from the couch. If a cold front moved in on friday morning, I'll still be hunting Saturday. But, if something is moving in Wednesday night, I'll cancel all of my meetings for that day so I can hunt the curve before the storm.
If we didn't hunt because of a little wind in Kansas, nobody would ever hunt.
