WAY is close enough to MGW for me to be able to make a reasonable estimate
of whether I can get into WAY based on weather in MGW... it is not perfect
but it is a pretty effective plan considering I have done this for years
and thus know the local weather patterns very well. Since I am IFR, if I
cannot get into WAY then no harm is done -- I could just ask for a
clearance
back to MGW and land.


I don't follow. If you're assuming the weather at WAY is similar to the
weather at MGW, then just the need to do an approach at MGW should tell you
that an approach is needed at WAY. Since WAY has no approach you won't be
able to get in.
