  1. Initial Forecast

    Model forecasts 40% delay risk for Raleigh/Durham departures noon–3 PM Friday

    Tailodds’ model gives the 50 departures scheduled from Raleigh/Durham noon–3 PM Friday an average 40% chance of leaving 15+ minutes late. With calm weather the same flights would average 19%. From the 2:00 PM EST forecast (model famA-fc-v3). This is a forecast, not a report of delays.

  2. Escalation Forecast

    Updated model puts Raleigh/Durham departure delay risk noon–3 PM Friday at 52%

    What changed: 40% → 52% since the 2:00 PM EST forecast (model changed)

    Tailodds’ model gives the 49 departures scheduled from Raleigh/Durham noon–3 PM Friday an average 52% chance of leaving 15+ minutes late. With calm weather the same flights would average 20%. From the 10:00 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. This is a forecast, not a report of delays.
