  1. Initial Forecast

    Model forecasts 50% delay risk for Las Vegas departures 3–6 PM Thursday

    Tailodds’ model gives the 108 departures scheduled from Las Vegas 3–6 PM Thursday an average 50% chance of leaving 15+ minutes late. With calm weather the same flights would average 33%. From the 4:00 PM PDT forecast (model famA-fc-v3). This is a forecast, not a report of delays.

  2. Escalation Forecast

    Updated model puts Las Vegas departure delay risk 3–6 PM Thursday at 60%

    What changed: 50% → 60% since the 4:00 PM PDT forecast (model changed)

    Tailodds’ model gives the 111 departures scheduled from Las Vegas 3–6 PM Thursday an average 60% chance of leaving 15+ minutes late. With calm weather the same flights would average 34%. From the 10:00 AM PDT 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.
