Anyone knows what 's happening with the SN flight to Yaounde ? Thanks

https://www.flightradar24.com/BEL379/30bb904b
Several weather sites indicate thunderstorms around the city of Yaounde. Perhaps weather is the reason for the diversion.

Update: aircraft now on her way to Yaounde.

An unusual visitor in Brussels this morning. A Thai Airways A330-300. Thai no longer has scheduled flights to Brussels and certainly not in the A330-300.
