Raining good now

[DIYARCHERYJUNKIE]

Anyone else getting rain?  Thank god if you are this might end the closed to fire danger for elk season this year or at least prolong it.  How much rain do we need to keep the woods open?

[pianoman9701]

Depends on the woods. I've never seen NF close. Not sure I've seen state forest close either. The rain would be nice. Keep it coming.

It never rains in hell, but in a few weeks I'll be in heaven.

weyco is already closed and i doubt this will be enough.

I think St. Helens is the only one closed.  Vail is still open and I believe Pe Ell is as well.

It's going to take many days of rain to change anything.

Raining in Vail now and has been since around 4 yesterday. For the last couple weeks there has been heavy dew in the mornings. It is dry, but nothing like the last couple years.

Ive never seen NF closed either, but last year the Nanum state forest was closed during early muzzy deer. That really sucked.

We could use some moisture over here in Central Washington. It is cloudy today but still supposed to hit about 92 and boy is it muggy!

The WDFW closed hunting season in the Methow once (modern rifle)that I can remember due to fire danger.  I will guess about 1981 or so, give or take a year.   I am saying WDFW only because I know the season was shutdown and assume they are the ones that would do that.   No big deal then because there was still a split season.  Even after the closure, there was more open hunting than there is now.  I assume at that time you probably could still hunt all three weapon types as well.

It's been raining off and on down here. Pretty heavy at times at night. Hopefully this helps open the woods!
