When it goes wrong
The average describes a usual day. This is the day that ruins a connection.
91 min late
against a median of 9 min late
F93212 is a flight whose average understates its risk: a typical day arrives 9 min late, but the worst tenth of days are 82 minutes worse than that. If the day has something unmissable in it, the median is the wrong number to plan against.
Percentiles over 395 operations. Cancelled and diverted flights have no arrival time and are counted separately rather than as very late arrivals.

weather severe enough to stop this flight specifically

Data and methodology
Calculated by FlyerIntel from 395 records of F93212 operating LAX → DFW, published by the US DOT Bureau of Transportation Statistics. A flight counts as delayed when it arrives 15 or more minutes after schedule. Cancelled and diverted flights are excluded from the on-time rate and reported separately. Flight numbers are resolved as carrier plus number plus route, because the same number serves different routes over time.
