  1. Initial Forecast

    Model forecasts 41% delay risk for Phoenix departures 6–9 PM Wednesday

    Tailodds’ model gives the 104 departures scheduled from Phoenix 6–9 PM Wednesday an average 41% chance of leaving 15+ minutes late. With calm weather the same flights would average 24%. From the 7:00 PM MST forecast (model famA-fc-v3). This is a forecast, not a report of delays.

  2. Escalation Forecast

    Updated model puts Phoenix departure delay risk 6–9 PM Wednesday at 56%

    What changed: 41% → 56% since the 7:00 PM MST forecast (model changed)

    Tailodds’ model gives the 103 departures scheduled from Phoenix 6–9 PM Wednesday an average 56% chance of leaving 15+ minutes late. With calm weather the same flights would average 31%. From the 3:00 PM MST 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.
