They are reusing Monday's webcast link (the "Live in" time is right), though it is currently "Unlisted".

Edit: Less than two hours from launch and still unlisted. Hey SpaceX, why have you been doing that lately? It makes it hard for people to find your video directly on YouTube.
Edit2: Was de-unlisted about 40 minutes before launch.

There's a big rainfall near the cape. If its heading north, there might be another scrub.
