It seems could be tomorrow, but tonight there is a 40% for a "Go". Perhaps, more than wheather, they fears for 13...

The Astronauts are in the Astrovan on their way to the pad. They just dropped Steve Lindsay off at the landing facility.

The weather at this time (1552 EDT) is still a "GO" but there are some T-Storms monving into the area - but so far it looks good.

Here in East Orlando we've only had some light showers....

NASA TV reported that a shower system they were watching form to the west of the launch pad has dissipated.

There was also a lighting warning for parts of KSC, but the storms were moving away from the pad.

I'm watchin the NWS Weather RADAR and it looks like a T-Storm is moving directly towards the Shuttle Pad from a South-North trajectory... FYI -- not to mention a storm moving from the North-West...

Will keep you informed...

Just finished cleaning my garage. IT took all day.

We are in RED for lighting right now but looking at the radar there are strong storms north and south of the KSC. But they are moving away probably in the next 30 min. Unless some pop up we should be good in my opinion.

Can't make the Sinc. To busy.
Next launch I will if we launch today.

Looking like another weather scrub for today....  Rather doubt these new storms will clear out in time for the go/no-go call in this hold...

It's their job.  They are used to it.  Polansky said it best: "Either the weather is favorable or it's not, there's no clear cut decision.  We'll fly when we fly, don't get excited until the SRBs light."
