Delayed due to weather. While it looked clear at the launch site, there was concern about lightning or electrical discharges at higher altitudes. Disappointing, but understandable given the spotlight on this launch, which would be the first in about a year. Interestingly enough, I was watching simultaneously on NASA TV (thanks Dish!) and via Webcast at the NASA site, and the web broadcast was considerably delayed -- something on the order of 90 seconds.
While some delay is probably inevitable, I find one of that duration quite odd. The launch team will try again tomorrow.
