Forecast Discussion
Space Launch Delta 45
Forecast Discussion: The remnants of the frontal boundary that passed through central Florida Thursday night, coupled with onshore flow, are expected to enhance shower activity along the east coast of Florida for both launch opportunities. Although the mid-levels are dry, the boundary could provide enough of a boost to trigger a few thunderstorms. The backup day appears more likely to be impacted by the remnant boundary. The Cumulus Cloud Rule is the primary concern on both days.
