  1. Initial Forecast

    Model forecasts 53% delay risk for LAX departures 9 AM–noon Sunday

    Tailodds’ model gives the 183 departures scheduled from LAX 9 AM–noon Sunday an average 53% chance of leaving 15+ minutes late. With calm weather the same flights would average 21%. From the 10:00 PM PST forecast (model famA-fc-v3+famB-sd-v4i). This is a forecast, not a report of delays.

  2. De-escalation Forecast

    Updated model puts LAX departure delay risk 9 AM–noon Sunday at 42%

    What changed: 53% → 42% since the 10:00 PM PST forecast (model changed)

    Tailodds’ model gives the 184 departures scheduled from LAX 9 AM–noon Sunday an average 42% chance of leaving 15+ minutes late. With calm weather the same flights would average 21%. From the 4:00 AM PST 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.
