Description: NOAA-N Prime is the latest polar-orbiting satellite developed by NASA/Goddard Spaceflight Center for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). NOAA uses two satellites, a morning and afternoon satellite, to ensure every part of the Earth is observed at least twice every 12 hours. NOAA-N will collect information about Earth's atmosphere and environment to improve weather prediction and climate research across the globe

You can probably catch this on Nasa tv or Nasa tv online

NOAA-N should assume the next available number in the series upon reaching orbit.

NASA TV doesn't cover those types of launches... If you go to ULA or Vandenburg's page they do have some webcams that might.

And this satellite is more research than anything used in severe weather operations.
