Sept. 9 (UPI) -- SpaceX is set to launch an Indonesian communication satellite after unfavorable weather scrubbed the initial flight on Tuesday night.
The new launch window is 8:01 p.m. EDT - 9:57 p.m. EDT for the launch from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station after Monday night's poor weather didn't allow a liftoff.
Tuesday night's forecast is a 15% favorable chance during the window and it increases to 30% by the end of the window.
"Deep atmospheric moisture will remain in place across Florida through early to mid-week," launch weather officers wrote. "This, combined with a stalled front across northern [Florida] and periods of instability aloft, will continue elevated chances of showers and storms for the primary and backup launch opportunities. Wind gusts of 30 to 40 mph are possible near stronger storms."
