Winter Storm Janus - How Will it Affect Borgata Winter Poker Open?

Will we see smaller fields in the coming days?
Will we see smaller fields in the coming days?

We overheard some in the room discussing the impending arrival of Winter Storm Janus, scheduled to put the "winter" in Borgata Winter Poker Open at any moment. The big question here is how it will affect the field. More than 2,700 flights are already canceled, with a further 2,300 delayed, according to the Weather Channel. The Weather Channel described the storm as bringing "heavy snow, frigid temperatures, and bitter winds" with as much as a foot of snow expected in some areas. With so many flights canceled, will we see smaller-than-expected fields in the coming couple of days? Or will players get snowed in and be forced to stay longer than expected?
