The Endeavour and a seven-astronaut crew are slated to blast off this evening at 7:39 p.m. EDT, from its seaside launch pad at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Cape Canaveral, Florida.

Re: Weather may halt the launch of the Endeavour
It is a difficult time of day to launch. But, the space station is in position that requires launch at a certain time so the shuttle can catch up with the station.....MGC

Holding at the 9:00 minute mark...currently no-go because of lightning. Hopefully the weather will move away in time for the launch....MGC
