Thanks for the responses. Looking at seating, the 6:00 a.m. flight is practically empty while the 9:30 a.m. flight (the one I'm scheduled for) is nearly full. Would that factor into cancellation at all, e.g. would they say "This flight is nearly empty, let's just cancel it instead of sending it into the storm."?
Looking at the weather graph for the day, winds are expected to go >50 mph after 2 p.m.
