Initial Forecast
Model forecasts 41% delay risk for Philadelphia departures noon–3 PM Friday
Tailodds’ model gives the 57 departures scheduled from Philadelphia noon–3 PM Friday an average 41% chance of leaving 15+ minutes late. With calm weather the same flights would average 21%. From the 12:00 AM EST forecast (model famA-fc-v3+famB-sd-v4i). This is a forecast, not a report of delays.

Escalation Forecast
Updated model puts Philadelphia departure delay risk noon–3 PM Friday at 51%
What changed: 41% → 51% since the 12:00 AM EST forecast (model changed)
Tailodds’ model gives the 57 departures scheduled from Philadelphia noon–3 PM Friday an average 51% chance of leaving 15+ minutes late. With calm weather the same flights would average 21%. From the 5:00 AM 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.
