The 45th Weather Squadron has forecasted a 70% chance of favorable weather for SpaceX's Falcon 9 rocket launch carrying the classified NROL-95 payload for the National Reconnaissance Office.
The launch is scheduled for Thursday, July 30, at 3:10 a.m.

Impact & Risks

The primary risk involves potential weather violations due to thunderstorms and cloud cover, which could delay the launch. While the forecast indicates a decent chance of favorable conditions, the ambiguity in weather models highlights the possibility of last-minute changes. These risks are higher than typical for summer overnight launches, but the mission remains on track barring significant weather disruptions.
