An airline is allowed to invoke ‘extraordinary circumstances’ (ie weather in this situation) for up to three previous rotations of the aircraft, so Norwegian is unlikely to pay. The amount of compensation is fixed at €250/£220 for the shortest journeys irrespective of the fare you paid.
@JDB I guess the three rotations rule is case law? I don’t suppose you have a reference handy? I would be interested to read.
