Forecast Discussion

Space Launch Delta 45

Forecast Discussion: A stalled cold front near the Spaceport will slowly move southeast of the region tonight. This system will continue the chance of showers and isolated thunderstorms across central FL at times through this afternoon. By the launch opportunity on Sunday, the front will be well southeast of the Spaceport, making for cumulus clouds and offshore showers the only minor cause for concern. While conditions remain overall favorable across the Spaceport during the backup opportunity, winds will increase across the Spaceport and conditions deteriorate for the recovery location as another front moves near the area on Monday.
