Runway shut at LHR

The runway at LHR was only shut 'briefly' today, not the 2hrs that speedpig seems to suggest. I think speedpig is trying to be a little misleading on this thread. Reference my earlier post, for the pilots here, would 1" of snow, the 'kind' we had this morning cause you any difficulty landing. Indeed I have experianced landing in a variety of aircraft in very inclement weather, lots of snow on the runway. It only seems to be a problem at LHR. You know the press releases from BA & BAA is just more spin when the snow which settled had melted, all on it's own by 10am this morning.
