Quick read
- pbe-weather-precip@1.1.0 moved “Denver” from 52% to 38% (−14 pts).
- Later data cutoff: Oct 23 17:00Z → Oct 23 23:00Z; 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 55% to 55%.
What changed in the inputs
Between the snapshot captured at Oct 23 17:02Z (data cutoff Oct 23 17:00Z) and the one at Oct 23 23:00Z (cutoff Oct 23 23:00Z), the same model version — pbe-weather-precip@1.1.0 — moved “Denver” from 52% to 38%. The model inputs that changed: GFS MOS max 6-h chance of rain from 39% to 26%; National Blend max 6-h chance of rain from 32% to 30%; GFS MOS chance of rain in the window from 60% to 43%; National Blend chance of rain in the window from 50% to 46%.
