As mentioned earlier, and in view of the ATC report below, this suggests that the predicted weather has led to Heathrow asking BA to cancel flights in order to keep the ATC workload manageable. This normally gets marked in the App version of Flight Status, but so far none of the above flights have been so labelled. The PVG and MIA flights were cancelled on Saturday morning so they definitely aren't weather or ATC. But my guess, giving the number of flights, that most of the shorthaul services above will not be claimable. This brings the total departures from LHR for BA to 326 out of 657.

Weather: Areas of CB and thunderstorms are likely to move northwards from France through the day, becoming organized at times; however, confidence on details of locations and timings is very low. The risk for the LTMA is considered Medium at first (with low risk of clusters), increasing to high (with medium risk of clusters) from 09Z. The west of the LTMA is more likely to see significant CB activity. Away from CBs, it will remain mostly cloudy and warm, though some sunny spells possible, with genlte NE'ly winds.
