There is a 70% chance for storms in the area tomorrow so it's very likely going to be a scrub tomorrow.
- Recurecur 6mo agoAccuWeather has it at the infamous 51% probability level for thunderstorms at 5 CST, so there’s still a decent chance for success tomorrow. Time will tell!
- PyWoody 6mo agoThe percentage isn't the percent of it occurring but the area affected. So 51% of thunderstorms means 51% of that town/county/etc. will experience thunderstorms.
- robhlt 6mo agoThat's not how it works. Probability of precipitation means exactly what it sounds like: the probability that precipitation will fall in a specific forecast area. Here's the definition from the NWS: https://forecast.weather.gov/glossary.php?word=probability%20of%20precipitation https://forecast.weather.gov/glossary.php?word=probability%2...
- PyWoody 6mo agoInteresting. The way I explained it was how it was explained to me by a group of weather forecasters. For instance, here [0], is an explanation from a random weatherman that is in-line with how I was told.

- ericcumbee 6mo agothe real question is what is our probability of Launch Commit Criteria Violation at T-0. i've seen them be no go at t-10 with a 10% chance of go and watched it lift off on time.
- HerbManic 6mo agoPossible, but that is still reasonable odds. Reminds me of the line from The Naked Gun "Doctors give him a 50% chance of living, but there is only a 10% chance of that."
