Probably not the infrastructure there now to support it as a major diversion for airlines. I remember one winter when Tees Side managed to get a clear-ish runway when our BD062 arrived back from Heathrow, the word went out REALLY quickly and from about1045 to well past midnight we were almost stacking them on top of each other and calling off duty staff in. Probably couldn't cope with that now.
