SpaceX's plans for multiple launches this week have been plagued by delays due to unfavorable weather and technical issues.

The Starlink mission from Florida has also been delayed multiple times and is now scheduled for Sunday, with a 35% chance of happening. The California Starlink mission has been pushed back to December 28 as well. The crowded launch schedule in January may require some missions to be moved to different launch pads.
