I've been waiting all day for people to post what they've found today. Wish I had a detector, only 10 mins from Jersey shore, can only imagine what washed up today.

Hurricanes are good time to detect, maybe Earthquakes too & bring coins up to the surface

Let us know if you find anything. This post reminds me, I'll have to check in with the "Soda Pop Pirates" and see what they are finding. They hunt the Outer Banks of North Carolina and make some outstanding finds.

I think the best time to go detecting is after a rain storm. The water in the ground seems to make the detector more sensitive.

I'll take a stab at a serious answer to your question, and I think it's a good question BTW.
Here's something that you may not have thought about. If you're detecting "in town".... First light is the best time of day to detect. Our machines are affected to some degree by EMI, or electromagnetic interference. As people get up and start running coffee makers, TV sets, microwaves and air conditioners....the EMI increases dramatically. I hunt a downtown park that gives me silver in the morning, but only in the morning. Last year, over say maybe 10 outings, I did not score a single silver coin after 11:00 am. It has to be an EMI issue.

What you also find is the sun warms up the ground causing the minerals in it to polarize causing stronger magnetic interference with the pulse in the coils,this decreases the penetration depth as the day get latter that's why the detecting is better in winter or working at night and early mornings,this is just my observation with detecting since 1982.
