More launch opportunities will be available starting at 12:19 a.m. Saturday if needed.

The 45th Weather Squadron’s forecast shows only a 5% chance of weather getting in the way of Friday morning’s launch attempt. But that chance grows to 20% if pushed to Saturday.

Regardless, News 6 will stream the launch live at the top of this story when it happens.
