That's exactly what they're doing. My LYS-LHR tomorrow has just been cancelled with reason listed as 'weather' which is highly suspicious given that it came in the middle of a raft of systems-failure cancellations.

But I guess BA could reasonably call the airport's failure an extraordinary circumstance?
