Model forecasts 49% delay risk for San Diego departures 6–9 PM Thursday
Tailodds’ model gives the 59 departures scheduled from San Diego 6–9 PM Thursday an average 49% chance of leaving 15+ minutes late. With calm weather the same flights would average 33%. From the 8:00 AM PDT forecast (model famA-fc-v3+famB-sd-v4i). This is a forecast, not a report of delays.

Escalation Forecast
Updated model puts San Diego departure delay risk 6–9 PM Thursday at 65%
What changed: 49% → 65% since the 8:00 AM PDT forecast (model changed)
Tailodds’ model gives the 59 departures scheduled from San Diego 6–9 PM Thursday an average 65% chance of leaving 15+ minutes late. With calm weather the same flights would average 36%. From the 12:00 PM PDT 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.
