CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. -- An ominous storm cloud hovers over Launch Complex 39 at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida. The massive, 525-foot-tall facility at left is the Vehicle Assembly Building. Florida summers are known for their dynamic weather patterns with the start of the Atlantic hurricane season and the onset of afternoon thunderstorms that bring with them heavy rain, frequent lightning and occasionally even tornadoes.
