Question Heathrow flightpath on a Friday afternoon

I live right under the Heathrow flightpath and am accustomed to (indeed enjoy) aircraft flying over me at least every couple of minutes when I'm at home.

This afternoon though I went to sit in the sun in the park after work and noticed for the first time that none were passing over... Not one in over two hours (6-8pm). A couple in cruise way up high but none on approach as is normally the case.

Anyone got any idea why? I am 14 miles due east of Heathrow.

Just curious... I normally enjoy lying in the sun watching them come over nice and low.

Cheers all
