Vandenberg Air Force Base, Calif. (June 9, 2011) – A United Launch Alliance Delta II stands ready for launch at Space Launch Complex-2 with NASA’s Aquarius/SAC-D payload. Launch is scheduled for Friday, June 10 at 7:20 a.m. PDT. NASA’s Aquarius, the primary instrument on the SAC-D observatory, will provide unprecedented global maps of ocean surface salinity to better understand the links between ocean circulation, the global cycling of freshwater and climate.

ULA's last update - when they sent the photo of the vehicle on the pad - was "Weather continues to look good with a 100 percent chance of favorable weather for launch"

Most VAFB launches have that look ...
btw. When did ULA start putting the number of Webcast viewers currently watching on? That is kinda cool.
