PAO reported that the STA will be checking out the area of clouds west of the SLF -- I believe he said they want to check the thickness of the clouds; the concern is if the clouds are greater than 4500 feet thick. Also reported that weather out in the booster recovery area is deteriorating; the recovery ships will stationkeep until the weather permits recovery.

Looks like most of the weather is moving away to the Northeast. Rominger and Lindsey reporting that the clouds don't look like much and aren't developing into a whole lot yet.

As always, only relevant updates should go in here. None of that "Go Atlantis" or "I'm biting my bloody nails" etc. As people come to this page for updates on the mission, and not to find out what you've just had for lunch.
Any questions like "How does an SSME work" - into the Shuttle Q and A thread - top of the general section (although that sort of answer will be in there). Any questions specific questions to an update are ok.
Weather questions must go here:

Images are now option to view (via attached links) so we will be able to cope with the huge demands as with Sept. 8 attempt, where it was the 10,000s of refreshings of pages full of images that slowed the site down.
