Thunderstorms hit the area at 17:20, causing WW2202 to hold prior to landing (they asked for a diversion to Bristol, but they were just as bad). Both BE286 and TOM2895 returned to stand to take on more fuel after holding at the runway end for 30 minutes, this generated new slot times causing even more delay. RE314 hit a gap in the weather just before it too would have needed a pit stop.
