Will we be starting the launch day thread in time for RSS retract or tanking?

Launch day thread will be a few hours before tanking, when the news starts coming in. At least, that's how it's been since I've been here.

Yep, we'll do RSS retract here and start the launch day thread early tomorrow.

If they have to scrub tomorrow (which I hope they don't), will they do a 24 hour turnaround and if needed another 24 hour turnaround? Can they do two 24 hour turnarounds within two days?

It depends on the situation. They did say that "three in a row" is up for consideration.

If they scrub tomorrow and Friday they will do a 48 hour turnaround to top off commodities right?

Current shot of the pad. Anyone know of a better view available to watch the RSS retract?

I'm not sure about the shot, normally Camera 070 is used. Will be getting whatever I can get though!

Well, they'd best adjust the camera view soon, or at least adjust this one for low light conditions! 10 more minutes and we won't be able to see anything...

If they were to do "three in a row" then that would be Thursday-Friday-Saturday, which was said to be up for consideration. But, it depends on the situation they get (if they get there). I thought Steve Payne said it pretty well when someone asked him about "if X happens, then is that an automatic scrub?" He said "nothing is automatic," which is generalizing things, but is applicable for elements like the weather and for decisions that don't have to be immediate.

Early weather scrub maybe? I don't think it would happen this early though.

Camera 070 is available as sreaming, in the following link:
http://science.ksc.nasa.gov/shuttle/countdown/video/Tip (Realplayer required): click the "KSC Payload Processing Feed" link
It will call RealPlayer and show camera 070 live stereaming. Don't know when they will zoom out to allow seeing RSS retract. Wish they will soon.
