Extraordinary weather conditions incompatible with operation of flight

I'm interest in the interpretation of this. BA are refusing compensation to my cancelled flight due to this exemption. However my flight did fly it was cancelled mid journey home and re-routed back to Berlin where we experienced much turbulence due to a snow storm and landed in far heavier snow than Heathrow had almost 16 hours before. So the weather did not prevent us taking off and flying. Planes were still landing at LHR after ours was due to land. So it wasn't that planes couldn't land there.
so can they still say adverse weather conditions incompatible with operation of flight applied. I notice the BA have twisted the words of this statement and wrote 'incompatible with flight operations' which means whole different ball game to 'incompatible with operation of flight' ??
