More launch updates :

2106 GMT (4:06 p.m. EST)

The Boeing launch team will now target the very end of today's
available launch window for liftoff. This is being done to wait for
weather to become acceptable. Liftoff is now planned for 4:24 p.m.
EST.

2105 GMT (4:05 p.m. EST)

Weather is still reported "no go" and the decision has been made to
extend this hold.

2103 GMT (4:03 p.m. EST)

The earlier problem with rain has gone away. Precipitation is no longer
a concern. However, thick clouds are still a threat. Mission Director
Rich Murphy is discussing the situation with Launch Weather Officer
Joel Tumbiolo.

2102 GMT (4:02 p.m. EST)

A clearing trend in clouds is moving this way. The question is when it
will arrive.

2100 GMT (4:00 p.m. EST)

Weather conditions remain unacceptable for launch. The good news is
the launch team is not working any technical problems with the
rocket, satellites or ground support equipment. Standing by for word
if the weather will improve to allow a liftoff at 4:10 p.m. EST or if the
T-minus 4 minute hold will be extended again.

2056 GMT (3:56 p.m. EST)

Now 10 minutes away from the scheduled time to resume the
countdown from T-minus 4 minutes.

2054 GMT (3:54 p.m. EST)

Today's 30-minute launch window is now open. However, more rain
sprinkles are falling at the press site.

2050 GMT (3:50 p.m. EST)

A weather aircraft continues its flights around Cape Canaveral Air
Force Station to check cloud conditions in real time. Under the current
plan, if weather is acceptable, the countdown will pick up from
T-minus 4 minutes at 4:06 p.m. for liftoff at 4:10 p.m. EST (2110
GMT).
