Weather is not looking very good, but Boeing has said they will have the aircraft standing by if and when the weather clears. If it doesn't do so in time, it will be pushed to Wednesday.

More to come...

Weather is looking a little more promising this morning! People are gathering.

One more hour until the webcast starts: http://787firstflight.newairplane.com/ffindex.html

It seems that if the weather is not good enough at 10:00pst, the plane will wait at the beginning on the runway for it to clear.

the First Trucks are getting ready, and MANY Boeing employees are lining up and congregating at the side of the runway.

Beacons on! Engines spooling up!

Doors closed, awaiting stairs to be pulled back.

any channels on cablevision carrying this? Was hoping to pass it only my family

FoxNews and CNN have feeds online, maybe they'll put them on the air also.

It's rolling!

Mirrodie, no cable news is showing it at the moment, although they might switch last minute.

OMG I saw Midnight Mike on TV!

CNN is on-air now.

cool thanks
