Storm Isha caused windespread travel disruption and this video of a British Airways flight at Heathrow shows why some flights were cancelled.

This British Airways flight made a nail-biting landing at London Heathrow during Storm Isha's 90mph winds.

The aircraft, an Airbus A320neo, which landed just after 2pm on Sunday (January 21), can be seen pulling to one side and almost piling one wheel into the tarmac.

High winds forced the Met Office to put in place flight restrictions during the storm, which led to numerous diversions.

Some flights due to land in the UK even ended up in Germany and France because of the treacherous conditions.
