  1. Initial Forecast

    Model expects about 7 cancellations among O'Hare departures 9 PM–midnight Saturday

    Adding up each flight’s cancellation probability, Tailodds’ model expects about 7 of the 126 departures scheduled 9 PM–midnight Saturday to be cancelled (6%). With calm weather it would expect about 1. From the 9:00 AM CST forecast (model famA-fc-v3+famB-sd-v4i). This is a forecast, not a report of cancellations.

  2. Escalation Forecast

    Updated model now expects about 13 among O'Hare departures 9 PM–midnight Saturday

    What changed: about 7 → 13 expected cancellations since the 9:00 AM CST forecast

    Adding up each flight’s cancellation probability, Tailodds’ model expects about 13 of the 126 departures scheduled 9 PM–midnight Saturday to be cancelled (10%). With calm weather it would expect about 1. From the 11:00 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.
