The latest from the Associated Press expains pretty much what has probably happened:

...South Korea's Yonhap news agency, citing a South Korean government official, reported that the weather around the North Korean launch site was bad, indicating the North may not fire its missile Sunday.

Satellite weather images posted on the Web site of the South's Korea Meteorological Administration showed clouds around the launch site in northeastern North Korea as of early evening.

A missile launch "depends a lot on weather conditions,'' a South Korean intelligence official told The Associated Press, but he didn't comment on weather conditions in the area.

With such weather, if there was no particular movement by 8 p.m. (1100 GMT) "we can say a missile won't be launched today,'' Yonhap quoted a Foreign Ministry official it did not identify as saying.

A nighttime launch is considered unlikely.

Karl Rove saves the day with his weather machine, film at 11, flag raising optional but recommended.
