We are overlooking something very important.

Yesterday was a very interesting weather day.

To think about this rationally, we need to know what the weather was in that immediate area at that time.

We also need to know where the flight originated. That would give a hint as to how much weather deviation was involved, winds aloft along the route, whether the route was a fuel stretch, etc.
