Predicting Whitetail Activity


Weather can have a profound impact on a hunter on any given day. Just how much can weather effect deer behavior? Does it really make a difference? The following charts detail what type of weather increases and decreases deer activity in the field.

GOOD WEATHER CONDITIONS
(increased deer activity)

Barometric pressure of between 29.80 and 30.29
Puffy, gray altocumulus clouds in the north or northwestern sky, with winds of less than 10 mph coming from the south or southwest
High, scattered, cotton-like cumulus clouds overhead
Relative humidity of less than 60 percent
Red sunset
New moon

BAD WEATHER CONDITIONS
(decreased deer activity)
Barometric pressure of 29.75 or lower
Solid, gun-metal gray altostratus clouds accompanied by high southerly winds
Low, dark gray, rainy nimbostratus clouds accompanied by high southerly winds.
Lower cirrus clouds (mare's tails)
Tall, anvil-topped cumutonimbus clouds
Corona (halo effect) around the moon
Relative humidity of more than 60 percent
Yellow sunset
Full moon
