Question: why exactly does high wind slow (not stop) operations?
Question from curious SLF:

Apparently there were delays at LHR today due to high winds slowing operations - now obviously I can understand high winds stopping operations altogether, but what exactly is happening when operations are simply slowed by the wind?
