Does the RAF still have an all-weather capability?

Does the RAF still have an all-weather capability? I only ask because there seems to have been difficulty with the RAF100 and 617 Sqn 75th flypast of the Derwent Dam today. I quite understand that safely flying the Lancaster in poor weather was not possible but, even I could have flown a Tornado through at 200' IMC TFR. Yes, the Typhoon got there but, why was there any doubt? Don't tell me the Typhoon is not IMC LL capable?
