The weather seems to be heading slowly north, I know someone who is currently in the Lake District and they've said it's apparently expected there this afternoon. No heavy rain or thunder here now just grey clouds.

Another heavy storm has been passing directly over the airport.
East Midlands has received our Wizz flight from Suceava.
EasyJet from Edinburgh and Aer Lingus from Dublin are also holding near EMA.

EMA has took approx 13 divs from LTN/BHX/MAN. If they don't get out before the next storm (heading north along the M1) and the cargo influx, there maybe trouble ahead.

Wonder if that storm today is for Barton to get a us airline in which he put millions in for S27.

British Airways B772 G-YMMO operating San Diego-Heathrow diverted in earlier today.
Does anyone have the knowledge regarding the reason for this diversion? Looking at the landing conditions at LHR I cannot understand why, at just 15 minutes out, It changed its normal course to the NE and routed via Northampton/Daventry to BHX.

Can we add A4O-SJ to the list? Just came in now from Hamburg. I believe it’s staying the night.

Todays weather caused a Jet2 737 to take an excursion at speed onto rthe grass just after touchdown the pilots fortunately got it back on the runway so only casualty will runway lighting. Definitely will be cause for a AAIB investigation.

A very similar incident happened a year or two back at LBA when a Tui 737-800 aircraft landing in high winds and rain veered to the left of the runway. but unlike this incident the crew failed to recover from what had happened which lead to the aircraft fully leaving the paved surface onto the grass at high speed. Possibly a different cause to this incident but if you count the seconds following the touchdown they only had about 5 or 6 seconds to recover from whatever went wrong.
