856079 2010-02-07 09:32:00 Awhhhh What A bummer-- canceled due to low cloud 4.30am Eastern time ( 10.30 pm NZ) -- Same time - same place tomorrow.

856081 2010-02-07 09:36:00 weather was no good, the call was made for a 24 hour scrub.

this means they are looking at another shot in aprox 24 hours, depending on launch window.
in this case the 24 hour window is at launch at 10:14pm monday night NZ time

so start watching at 9:50pm :-)

856083 2010-02-08 00:10:00 Mission managers gave the “go” for filling space shuttle Endeavour's external fuel tank, which began at 6:50 p.m. EST. The process should take approximately three hours. There is a 60 percent chance of favorable weather for tomorrow's launch time at 4:14 a.m. EST. robsonde (120)
