Thank you for checking, I appreciate it. I'm more price sensitive than I am committed to PE, and I could do GLA-SFO-GLA for under £1k in economy just buying a new flight a few days later, which is tempting. I think I'm going to proceed and fly the first leg and then at LHR see if my options have changed any. I called and removed my seat reservations for SEA-PDX, which is fully booked, and will hope I get bumped or it gets cancelled due to weather. I could also just ditch the booking after SEA and buy a new flight from there. Now that I don't have status anywhere it doesn't really matter who I fly with, and I could go SFO-GLA with EI for under £500. If the weather wasn't so terrible in Portland it wouldn't be the worst thing to be stranded there, but it looks pretty bad.
