Forecast Discussion
A weak cold front will slide through Central Florida this afternoon and stall across South Florida overnight. The front will bring a wind surge and a broken band of isolated showers, with a drop in humidity behind the boundary. On Monday, winds will quickly veer onshore, bringing a chance of coastal showers to the Spaceport through the day and night. On Tuesday, a (non-tropical) gulf low near Louisiana will progress gradually northeast into the Deep South. The Florida Peninsula will be in the warm sector of the system into Tuesday night, causing temperatures and humidity values to rise. However, the system will likely be too far away to otherwise impact local weather conditions across the Spaceport early Wednesday morning. As a result, excellent weather is expected during the primary launch window, with the Cumulus Cloud Rule being only a minor concern.
