Forecast Discussion

Space Launch Delta 45

Forecast Discussion: Temperatures will gradually warm through tomorrow as high pressure builds in from the west. For the launch window Wednesday, a new cold front will approach out of the northwest, bringing a slight increase in cloud cover, winds, and rain chances, though POV will remain low overall. For the backup day, high pressure will build back in with gusty surface winds being the only concern. Solar Activity will continue to be in the moderate range through midweek due to an ongoing M and X-class flare event.
