The Ryanair flights both diverted into Luton from Stansted - one was ex Dublin, the other ex Pescara.
Whilst weather (cross-wind/snow) at STN may have been the problem, I think it is more likely that both flights were running late and fell foul of the runway work that it taking place at night at present. The work has lead to a couple of other STN flights diverting/operating to Luton over the past few nights, although I'm not sure if there is a total runway closure or reduced landing distance available.
