CTMS delays can be due to weather (low cloud, reduced visibility, strong winds), staffing or other factors so it is often difficult to know the real reason. Yesterday was weather and staffing issues which meant a reduced acceptance rate hence and increase in on-ground and airborne delays. Yesterday probably cost Australia upwards of $10m (lost productivity, increased fuel burn, etc).
