And Elon Musk's twitter feed now shows this:

"Just reviewed mission params w SpaceX team. Monte Carlo runs show tmrw night has a 10% higher chance of a good landing. Punting 24 hrs."

Hmm. Winds? FWIW, the Canaveral weather includes a "beach hazard bulletin" warning of rough surf and strong offshore winds this evening.

SpaceX worked through the issues and got their static fire test done
late Friday. They currently hope to launch in a brief window at 8:29 pm
eastern Sunday. (Next window would be Tuesday.) Best wishes to their
operations crew for a successful flight in time for all to be home for
Christmas.
