They scrubbed for clouds? Elon launched SN11 through a fog.

The reason for this rocket is to study atmospheric ionization. They plan to release Barium gas at altitude to observe how it is affected by our electromagnetic field/shield. They need to observe the release to see what occurs, so since clouds block their view the launch has to be postponed.
