The British Aviation Authority (BAA) is carrying out an official investigation into what went wrong at Heathrow where hundreds of planes were grounded over the busy Christmas period. The report is set to be released at the end of March 2011. Thousands of passengers were left with cancelled flights, forced to sleep in airport terminals and left hundreds of pounds out of pocket due to the adverse weather conditions. The BAA has been severly criticised for its planning strategies during this period and a panel of experts from various airports in the UK will be looking into the investigation.

As a result, Sir Richard Branson, owner of Virgin Atlantic has announced today that he will be witholding payments to airport operator BAA until the official report has been released at the end of March. Claiming that the BAA’s disorganisation has cost the company millions of pounds. Other airlines have been equally as critical of the BAA’s capability to deal with the adverse weather conditions and the length of time it evetually took to clear planes for take off and landing. Last week, British Airways announced that the extended closure of airports across the UK has cost the company over 50 million pounds.

After the chaotic Christmas freeze in Germany where many towns and cities battled with never-ending snow fall and sub zero temperatures; it seems as though temperatures are finally getting milder across the country and the build up of snow is finally melting. However, due to records amounts of snow across the country, the winter thaw has caused major flooding across all parts of Germany. Rivers in many areas have burst their banks causing various towns and cities to be affected. In the West of the country the Rhine has overflowed causing problems in both Bonn and Cologne. Rivers have reportedly not yet reached their peak in Cologne but further flooding is predicted to carry on until late Tuesday.

The worst affected river appears to be the River Mosel, which flows through towns such as Koblenz, Cochem and Trier. Reports say that up to 30 villages in the wine-growing region south of Koblenz have been majorly affected with experts predicting water levels to reach 7.7m by Monday afternoon.

Experts are blaming this flash flooding on high levels of snow fall throughout December followed by a sudden increase in temperature at the beginning of 2011 causing such a rapid thaw.
