No, weather is not the main concern. The Engine Cut-Off sensors in the External Tank are causing problems again. It’s an intermittent electrical failure. They’ve seen it before though, but don’t know what causes it. Usually they work properly during the second tanking, which is what they’ll figure out tomorrow.

Weather is only 30% chance to constrain launch as of the MMT yesterday.
