Forecast Discussion

Space Launch Delta 45

Forecast Discussion: A surface ridge will remain just south of the Spaceport today and tomorrow with southwest regime flow pressing against an eastward-moving seabreeze each afternoon. Moisture will return Friday ahead of an incoming cold front, with the potential for scattered showers and even an isolated thunderstorm, especially late in the day and into the overnight hours. This front will move into the area for the backup launch opportunity on Saturday morning, yielding a much higher risk of unacceptable launch weather at that time. While this front is expected to push south of the area later in the weekend, developing onshore flow accompanied by lingering moisture will still provide a threat for clouds and showers going into Sunday.
