How the forecast was made

Exponential smoothing12% weekly error, under-forecast22% better than naive

A weighted recent average that learns the weekday pattern and any trend. Recent days count more than old ones.

Report card: the model was fit on history up to Tue Jul 21 and scored on the 56 days after. Weekly totals were off by 12% on average (27% day by day), and it under-forecast by 5% overall. A same-weekday-last-week guess would have been off by 15%.
