I don't know the reason for the Paris cancellation, but there was an Air France flight also cancelled. I can see other flights to Switzerland with LX being cancelled this evening. 328 BA departures out of 648.

Morning Operational Update
Landing RWY: 09L
Airborne holding (mins): 5
Departure RWY: 09R
TSAT delay average (mins): 5

Network: EGLL 40/60 0705-1100, 45/60 1100-1500. EHAM (Amsterdam) Arrivals regulated due to weather (snow) - Low to moderate delays.

Weather: Another cold morning and from early evening with airframe icing and a localised risk of ground ice if any surfaces happen to be damp and untreated. Conditions will most likely stay dry and cloudy with sunny spells. There is a 30% risk (Snow Response Alpha) that a band of frontal rain turning to snow across the far SW of the UK could briefly bring light sleet or snow to Heathrow between 08-14Z. However, this is most likely to be confined to the south coast and south-west England. In the event that the precipitation is further north than expected to affect Heathrow, precipitation will be light with most likely no accumulations, but there is a 10% risk of up to 1cm of slushy deposits.
