Forecast Discussion
Space Launch Delta 45
A cold front currently moving into the Florida Panhandle will cross the Spaceport this evening, then push out into the Atlantic overnight. Scattered showers remain possible ahead of and along this boundary through the afternoon but any precipitation amounts will be light. Northwest winds behind the frontal boundary will become gusty tomorrow and will remain so into Friday, although mostly clear skies are expected for both the primary and backup launch opportunities.
