Default Where to sit when it's raining

I'm trying to find the best spot for me to sit tonight and it's raining. Any suggestions?

It depends on how hard of a rain you're talking about. If it's not a downpour just hunt in it. I like a light rain/drizzle when hunting. My camo is waterproof.

Same places you would hunt in clear weather. The deer may bed down though if it's pouring down and windy

I'd find some thick pines if it was raining very hard.
Light rain doesn't matter.

I don't like deer hunting in the rain. I worry about the blood trail being washed away and loosing the deer.

if you are a good shot it wont go far...
To OP--depends on how hard its raining...but I like sitting at the base of a tree...opposite side of the rain...it blocks the wind and rain...

When it is raining, the deer are in the heavier bush. They don't like getting wet either. Move real slow through the heaviest stuff you can find, and you will find them.
