Resolution Forecast
Model lowers SFO departure delay risk noon–3 PM Thursday to 41%, near normal
What changed: 44% → 41%; calm-weather level 41%
Tailodds’ model gives the 124 departures scheduled from SFO noon–3 PM Thursday an average 41% chance of leaving 15+ minutes late. With calm weather the same flights would average 41%. From the 10:00 AM PST 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.
