  1. Initial Forecast

    Model forecasts 52% delay risk for Miami departures 9 PM–midnight Saturday

    Tailodds’ model gives the 61 departures scheduled from Miami 9 PM–midnight Saturday an average 52% chance of leaving 15+ minutes late. With calm weather the same flights would average 33%. From the 7:00 AM EDT forecast (model famA-fc-v3). This is a forecast, not a report of delays.

  2. Escalation Forecast

    Updated model puts Miami departure delay risk 9 PM–midnight Saturday at 66%

    What changed: 52% → 66% since the 7:00 AM EDT forecast (model changed)

    Tailodds’ model gives the 61 departures scheduled from Miami 9 PM–midnight Saturday an average 66% chance of leaving 15+ minutes late. With calm weather the same flights would average 33%. From the 12:00 PM EDT forecast (model famB-sd-v4i). The model changed since the previous item (from famA-fc-v3), so some or all of this change comes from the new model rather than new information.
