So they had a crosswind component of 16 knots gusting 22 knots on rwy 27. As usual the daily snail making a drama out of a non event, the landing looked normal and fairly smooth, the previous go around was the normal application of sound airmanship.
Crosswind wasn't the problem on RWY27, many flights made go-arounds or diverted because of windshear on short final.
