  1. Initial Forecast

    Model forecasts 59% delay risk for Newark departures 3–6 PM Thursday

    Tailodds’ model gives the 89 departures scheduled from Newark 3–6 PM Thursday an average 59% chance of leaving 15+ minutes late. With calm weather the same flights would average 32%. From the 4:00 PM EST forecast (model famA-fc-v3). This is a forecast, not a report of delays.

  2. De-escalation Forecast

    Updated model puts Newark departure delay risk 3–6 PM Thursday at 58%

    What changed: 59% → 58% since the 4:00 PM EST forecast (model changed)

    Tailodds’ model gives the 87 departures scheduled from Newark 3–6 PM Thursday an average 58% chance of leaving 15+ minutes late. With calm weather the same flights would average 33%. From the 3:00 AM EST forecast (model famA-fc-v3+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.
