Swiss airports and volcanic ash- anyone have local info?

[Pendulum]

I am due to fly to Zurich from Heathrow tomorrow lunchtime for work. I am wondering if the flight is going to get off, but more importantly if I am likely to get stuck there! Hve checked out what is happening from the UK side (flights still taking off from LHR) but wondering if any Swiss residents have any info?

(PS I would much rather not go on this trip if posible )

bumping in hope.

mmelindt? anyone else?

when are you aiming to come back? latest ash cloud predictions suggest that tomorrow (0600) zurich should be clear of the ash (mind you, last night the models were suggesting that it would just clip portugal today and the reality was worse than that)

hello kitten

coming back tuesday lunchtime.

I wouldnt be confident about being able to return on tuesday I'm afraid....

hmm that's what I'm worried about. Is there any chance the situation will be clear enough by tomorrow morning, for me to refuse to go?

(I realise this request probably requires a degree of crystal-ball gazing on your part....)

use this link at around 7am or after) tomorrow) that will give you forecasts up to midnight tomorrow night.

Look at both airports you'll be using on the charts (use the bottom three charts for this to give the midnight forecast) . If there is black over, or nearing those airports I think you can argue it is a deteriorating situation and that you feel there is a strong likely hood that you won't be able to get back within a reasonable time frame.
