I saw this little loop and thought it was interesting how ATC kept the flights out of harms way. Speaking of bad weather does anyone knows what happen for carrier operations? Is there another carrier in the area a pilot can fly to if need be?

sometimes.  usually not. 

but in carrier ops, the airfield has a tendency to move and can avoid the thunderstorms or move through the line and pick up the planes on the other side.  Lots of options.
