Possible mid or late June Vandenberg Falcon 9 Starlink launch, following Starlink 9-1:
Starlink 7-19,
Starlink 8-3,
Starlink 8-9,
Starlink 9-2.

Not-Starlink Vandenberg Falcon 9 launches in the near future:

Potential back to back SLC-4E launches: Transporter-11 and ASBM.

Time for 2 Starlink launch campaigns before these launches?

Celestis are saying 8 July.

As rsmath noted for Starlink 9-1, this launch starts out being even better in that the 8:45 PM PDT launch time allows California folks to see the jellyfish as well as people further east.

For the Los Angeles area here are the sun events for 18 June 2024 (close enough for 23 June)

Sunset:  8:07 PM PDT
Civil twilight:  8:37 PM PDT
Nautical twilight:  9:13 PM PDT
Astronomical twilight:  9:52 PM PDT

As a rough starting point, a launch at civil twilight may allow the ground observer to have adequately dark skies to see the plume.  It would be much better (darker sky on the ground) as the launch gets later. At some point, the second stage (and exhaust plume) would no longer be sunlit during the second stage burn.  That time is unknown to me but let us assume about 9:35 PM PDT.

Here is a positive.  For a given launch time that has the second stage in sunlight, the further east you go the darker the skies are on the ground, which would make a better visual experience.

To illustrate that, here are the sun events for Artesia, NM where the launch jellyfish has been seen:

Sunset:   8:08 PM MDT
Civil twilight:  8:37 PM MDT
Nautical twilight:  9:12 PM MDT
Astronomical twilight:  9:50 PM MDT

An 8:45 PM PDT launch is 9:45 PM MDT in Artesia which is astronomical twilight.  Much better viewing conditions (darker sky) in this more eastern area. 

I use https://www.sunrisesunset.com/ (https://www.sunrisesunset.com/) to determine sun events (sunset/twilight) for various locations.  Use the "Search USA" link on the left to input your location and select months and year.  Then after it creates a calendar go back to the bottom left and select "Modify Settings" and scroll down to choose whichever twilight settings you want and again scroll down and select "Make Calendar."

Watching the Starlink 9-1 video, I estimate orbital (launch) sunset at about T+06:30.  For Starlink 9-2, that should be a little sooner and expect dimming of the plume at some point earlier...perhaps T+05:30 (plus or minus).

SpaceX is targeting Sunday, June 23 for a Falcon 9 launch of 20 Starlink satellites, including 13 with Direct to Cell capabilities, to low-Earth orbit from Space Launch Complex 4 East (SLC-4E) at Vandenberg Space Force Station in California. Liftoff is targeted for 8:45 p.m. PT, with backup opportunities available until 12:45 p.m. PT on Monday, June 24. If needed, additional opportunities are also available on Monday, June 24 starting at 8:22 p.m. ET.

A live webcast of this mission will begin on X @SpaceX about five minutes prior to liftoff. Watch live.

This is the 11th flight for the first stage booster supporting this mission, which previously launched SDA-0A, SARah-2, and eight Starlink missions. (=B1075-11) Following stage separation, the first stage will land on the Of Course I Still Love You droneship, which will be stationed in the Pacific Ocean.

Some reusability stats for this launch (Starlink Group 9-2):

Booster B1075.11 turnaround time:
97 days 1 hour 19 minutes
(its previous mission was Starlink Group 7-16 on Mar 19, 2024 UTC).

FYI: median turnaround time for Falcon 9 / Heavy boosters is currently 34.42 days *
* – based on the last 30 launches, excluding new first stages.

Launchpad SLC-4E turnaround time:
5 days 0 hours 7 minutes
(the previous launch from this pad was Starlink Group 9-1 on Jun 19, 2024 UTC).

Among SpaceX's operations at SLC-4E, it marks the 4th best turnaround time, while the record remains at 4 days, 12 hours, and 0 minutes set between the Starlink Group 8-1 and USSF-62 launches in April 2024.

FYI: median turnaround time for SLC-4E is currently 9.13 days *
* – based on the last 30 launches.

The same type of stats for previous SpaceX launches may be found on this spreadsheet (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1WwD3CzpKR6vNgYS3QlxoOK9WLi81fof9zRiXzGCnbwo/edit?usp=sharing) online.

As promised my edited mashup of SpaceX, a contact in Santa Barbara (OliverVision), and a contact in San Diego (Look OUt and Look Up), including some summer fireworks from Sea World San Diego.

High altitude sunlight illuminates the twisting exhaust trail of Starlink Mission 9-2 as seen from the sands of Jalama Beach. In the distance, just above the coastal bluff, the glow of the booster's reentry burn for landing off the coast of Baja is visible.  The coast hugging trajectory of this satellite shell puts Jalama directly underneath the flight path, providing a unique vantage point of having a launch directly overfly the viewer, 10.3 miles from SLC-4E.
