I asked about a voucher, the agent went behind the counter and came back and said it was a WX cancellation so no voucher.

I pointed they still had 32 flights leaving that evening but all she could say was I was rebooked on a flight the next day. The nearest WX we saw coming in was in Pennsylvania. I figured the outbound crew was going to time out.
