Thanks TvB.
Scarebus,
But why did the following IB aircraft divert 56kms to avoid the same storm?
Don't shoot the messenger, it's from the Spanish press three days ago,
I'll avoid mentioning the loaded name...
There is no evidence to suggest that they didn't divert around weather. Their track may be vastly different from another aircraft 30 mins ahead/behind, the weather that night was clearly very dynamic and changing.
