Escalation Forecast
Updated model puts Fort Lauderdale departure delay risk 3–6 PM Thursday at 57%
What changed: 43% → 57% since the 2:00 AM EST forecast (model changed)
Tailodds’ model gives the 56 departures scheduled from Fort Lauderdale 3–6 PM Thursday an average 57% chance of leaving 15+ minutes late. With calm weather the same flights would average 29%. From the 12:00 PM EST forecast (model famB-sd-v4i). The model changed since the previous item (from famA-fc-v3+famB-sd-v4i), 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.
