Metoffice forecast

We're re-booked for VS015 at 13:00 hrs on Monday, but reading between the lines I don't think this is going to happen. What are your educated opinions
The met office forecasts are easily found, the most current one is http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/aviation...1271483349.png and that shows not a sign of anything materially changing for the UK out to 00:00Z on the 18th. They update every six hours or so.

If I were a betting man I'd say that based on that you aren't likely to be going anywhere - but of course the winds can change and then it'll presumably be a case of whether the equipment and personnel are all in the right place and ready to go.
