Escalation Forecast
Updated model puts Boston departure delay risk noon–3 PM Friday at 60%
What changed: 48% → 60% since the 2:00 PM EST forecast (model changed)

From the 2:00 AM EST 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.
