Not mega problems no. Just inefficiencies. Of course it helps if you are at the airport (which I am) rather than in Stockport relying on FR24.
The LVPs are now cancelled and we indeed do now have heavy rain. Earlier the BA could have landed at 08.40 but due to visibility issues was vectored until it could make the approach while at the same time a MON 320 was held [rather than taxying] due to the LVPs. Not massive issues no but inefficiencies. In a dog eat dog civil aviation world where airlines and airports compete to the death inefficiencies are bad bad bad and cost money and that is why I highlight them.
