Field notes
The airport board gives each location a ranked position and pairs its estimates with a worst hour ahead, weather conditions, and any listed FAA delay program. Its schedule is not complete at all times: the page says FAA flight plans cover 17,808 flights, while 12,703 use a recent Wednesday’s schedule until plans are published, usually about a day ahead. The displayed airport forecast is dated Sep 30 even though the selector marks Oct 1 as today.
