How come that on t minus 3min there is a weather no go? Anyone knows how this works...

  The launch is a no-go because an anvil cloud (thunderstorm) entered the 10 mile radius around the launch site. Prior to the scrub there were a few comments about a cloud being close to the exclusion zone but not yet in it.

  Here's more info about the Anvil Rule for launches and why it causes a NO-GO: http://weather.about.com/od/thunderstormsandlightning/f/anvilrule.htm http://weather.about.com/od/thunderstormsandlightning/f/anvi...

  But they where waiting for the last minute for weather to clear, or was it that just then the no-go condition generated?
