This update from our friends at Go Stargazing:
SATURDAYS SPACEX CREW DRAGON LAUNCH IS 50/50
The latest weather forecast for this evening's launch (30/05/20) at 20:22 BST offers a 50% chance of lift off.
Pre-flight preparations will continue as normal with the two astronauts being taken to the historic launch pad 39A and strapped in atop the Falcon 9 rocket around T-minus 2 hours. You can watch all of the build up online at SpaceX.com/webcast.
If launch does take place the capsule may be seen by observers in the South of England on its second pass at 22:15 BST — look low in a South Westerly direction. It's first pass after launch unfortunately cannot be seen as the skies will be too bright.
