Artemis 1 is staying on the pad for now, but there seems to be a risk involved.
I will resolve this YES if there are credible reports of more than de minimis damage such that, in hindsight, not rolling back was a mistake.

@NicoDelon @LivInTheLookingGlass I would note that I specifically phrased it as "in hindsight", which is to say, ex post, rather than ex ante.
Therefore, if they manage a successful launch tonight, I'm strongly inclined to resolve as NO, though I am open to contrary arguments. And obviously, if the launch fails or otherwise is seriously delayed specifically on account of storm damage, that's a definite YES.
(If it's delayed for unrelated reasons, then I'll need to actually parse through the reports and think it over to decide, which I haven't done yet)
#Artemis press conference update:
Two open issues as a result of the storm:
(1) liquid hydrogen tail service mast umbilical -- suspect electrical connector (even if they can’t fix this, there’s a backup, so won’t preclude launcH)
(2) Room temperature RTV material has delaminated from the eastern side of Orion (basically this is a caulk that has come off, can’t be serviced at the pad, so they need more time to discuss)
Intention is to launch Wednesday though

Does minor damage count? Apparently it’s not preventing the upcoming launch.
@NicoDelon It’s not clear from the article whether we can still conclude that they didn’t make a mistake ex ante.
