Initial Forecast
Model forecasts 52% delay risk for Tampa departures 3–6 PM Sunday
Tailodds’ model gives the 49 departures scheduled from Tampa 3–6 PM Sunday an average 52% chance of leaving 15+ minutes late. With calm weather the same flights would average 27%. From the 4:00 AM EST forecast (model famA-fc-v3+famB-sd-v4i). This is a forecast, not a report of delays.

Escalation Forecast
Updated model puts Tampa departure delay risk 3–6 PM Sunday at 56%
What changed: 52% → 56% since the 4:00 AM EST forecast (model changed)
Tailodds’ model gives the 49 departures scheduled from Tampa 3–6 PM Sunday an average 56% chance of leaving 15+ minutes late. With calm weather the same flights would average 26%. From the 8:00 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.
