Shuttle Processing Note: Pre-launch preparations remain on schedule for the 
April 4 STS-110 flight to the International Space Station. At pad B, aft 
closeouts of Shuttle Atlantis and the twin Solid Rocket Boosters were 
completed on Sunday. The seven STS-110 astronaut crewmembers arrived at 
the Kennedy Space Center about noon and spent an hour in the Payload 
Changeout Room at the pad performing a final inspection of the S-Zero 
Truss/Mobile Transporter payload and identifying any sharp edges they may 
encounter during the mission's four scheduled spacewalks. The payload doors 
were closed after the astronauts departed for their crew quarters.

The forecast for the launch period on Thursday predicts a 40% probability of 
weather prohibiting launch because of the possibility of a low cloud ceiling with 
thunderstorms and precipitation in the area.
