Manned shuttle missions land at Cape Canaveral on the east coast of Florida if the weather there is suitable. If the weather there is bad, they can extend the mission by a few days, but not indefinitely. If it gets to the point that they can't extend any longer and must land, and the weather at Cape Canaveral is still unfavorable, then they land at Vandenberg Air Force Base in California.
