The FAA already has screwed up the 737 Max oversight. They need to be challenged on this. They are not worth anything in oversight anymore. They always cede to managements wishes. Every pilot should write congress. ( not that they are up to anything either) but some congressman might want the press.

It's just not worth trying to do with one crew. The passenger anger/ expense factor is just too high on an extensive snow delay then cancel.
