  1. Initial Forecast

    Model forecasts 47% delay risk for Midway departures 9 AM–noon Saturday

    Tailodds’ model gives the 40 departures scheduled from Midway 9 AM–noon Saturday an average 47% chance of leaving 15+ minutes late. With calm weather the same flights would average 13%. From the 10:00 PM CST forecast (model famA-fc-v3+famB-sd-v4i). This is a forecast, not a report of delays.

  2. Resolution Forecast

    Model lowers Midway departure delay risk 9 AM–noon Saturday to 25%, near normal

    What changed: 47% → 25%; calm-weather level 13%

    Tailodds’ model gives the 40 departures scheduled from Midway 9 AM–noon Saturday an average 25% chance of leaving 15+ minutes late. With calm weather the same flights would average 13%. From the 12:00 AM CST 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.
