Under L-120 minutes. F9 should be observed as venting in stable replenish. Not seen any photos or visual indications yet, however - just notes all is well.
And that was the kiss of death....see below.

New T-0 is 11:44 EDT due to issues in the count. Not sure what, just the new T-0 from L2.
That's 10 mins before the end of the window, or more likely the end of the window per the big move to the right.

an amateur radio monitor is also reporting the T-0 is now 1144 based on comms with Blackhawk helicopters doing range clearance that have been told to return to base

I was hoping to get the scoop but Chris beat me to it
The same enthusiast reports the WB-57 is scheduled to support this launch again but is apparently delayed

I'd rather have it twice, than not at all, Targeteer!
A reminder, the current plan - in the even of a scrub (which is more likely now they pretty much went to a one shot window today) is to go on Wednesday in a window ranging from 0859-1131L - pending they can quickly fix whatever is wrong.

Launch Update
The ORBCOMM OG2 launch is currently targeted for liftoff on Monday, July 14, 2014 at 11:44am ET. A live launch webcast will begin here at approximately 11:25am EDT. Out of an abundance of caution, the team took some extra time this morning to look at a potential ground systems issue; we have resolved any concern there and are moving forward with the countdown with a new T-0 of 11:44am.
