Actually, there does appear to be a reference to weather.. this is the quote:

Quote:
Schedule Irregularity
An unplanned change or cancellation which normally occurs on the day of departure.
Examples - mechanical, ATC (Air Traffic Control), crew legality, weather.
I am puzzled by this, as I understood that US airlines would not reaccommodate if the delay was weather related. Indeed many are guilty of finding the remotest relationship to weather in order to avoid any liability. Am I mis-understanding the AA guidance Butch has linked to?
