In my area (way south) we've got a forcast of 80 degries and thunderstorms on Tues. on Wed it's 69 and clear. I'm off the first 3 days but am 2nd guessing after what looks like a cold front to me, coming in. Thurs. and Fri are looking about the same 65-68 maybe we'll see some action on those 2 days. Who knows it's still a week away, I guess if it were winter and they were calling for snow a week in advance I'd be saying "yeah right".

What's wroing with 69 and clear on opening day?
I remember last year opening day was forecasted for a monsoon of rain. I went ahead and went and it didn't actually rain that much.

They were gobbling today in Kentucky. Plus the season is long, and there will be good days, and other days not so good. If the opener isn't the best another day will be! Good luck!!!

Weekend of the 1st youth deer hunt, we started out with thunderstorms all night Friday evening, woke up Saturday to winds in the 20-30 mph range, and steady rain... while sitting in a blind with my son waiting on deer that never appeared, a flock of 15 birds cruised through the grass field we were in, feeding for about 15-20 minutes before moving back into the woods...
Steady rain + open grass fields = turkeys
