Reason for the cancellation according to BA: "Winter weather is forecast to impact London Heathrow airport tomorrow, Tuesday 22ndJanuary 2019. As a result of the expected weather, the following flights have now been cancelled for 22nd January." This looks like pro-active cancellation to prevent excessive delays to the entire schedule, though in terms of the number of flights this is at the lower level of cancellations in these circumstances.
