- Later data cutoff: Oct 13 11:00Z → Oct 13 17:00Z; same model version, so the move reflects inputs, not a model change.
- Primary inputs changed: GFS MOS max 6-h chance of rain, National Blend max 6-h chance of rain, GFS MOS chance of rain in the window, National Blend chance of rain in the window.
- The Kalshi mid captured with each snapshot went from 44% to 44%.
