Resolution Forecast
Model lowers SFO departure delay risk noon–3 PM Monday to 33%, near normal
What changed: 41% → 33%; calm-weather level 27%
Tailodds’ model gives the 129 departures scheduled from SFO noon–3 PM Monday an average 33% chance of leaving 15+ minutes late. With calm weather the same flights would average 27%. From the 6:00 AM PDT 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.
