    Model forecasts 45% delay risk for SFO departures 6–9 PM Friday

    Tailodds’ model gives the 78 departures scheduled from SFO 6–9 PM Friday an average 45% chance of leaving 15+ minutes late. With calm weather the same flights would average 29%. From the 8:00 AM PDT forecast (model famA-fc-v3+famB-sd-v4i). This is a forecast, not a report of delays.
