NASA Crew-1 - L-2 Forecast

Tropical Storm Eta has made landfall just south of Cedar Key, Florida. Eta will accelerate northeastward today and exit Florida near Jacksonville shortly after noon as it merges with a mid-latitude system along the Eastern Seaboard. Conditions will gradually improve through the day across the Space Coast, with rain chances and winds dropping off significantly after sunset. On Friday, a weak frontal boundary will push through the Spaceport, clearing away much of the cloud cover and turning winds northerly. This boundary will likely begin moving back northward on Saturday as winds become easterly, developing a few showers. The primary launch weather concern Saturday evening will be the cumulus clouds and showers along the boundary. On Sunday, conditions remain much the same as the next frontal system moves into the Southeastern U.S., adding instability to the stalled boundary over Central Florida. The primary launch weather concerns for Sunday remain the showers and cumulus clouds associated with the boundary.
