Document, document, document! WX onservations and forecasts, your experience in assessing the risk and the alternatives you have/had. This gives management ground to assess and instruct as appropriate. Of course, you should also go over these things with the crew.

Whatever happens, don't create the impression that you are 'controlling' their decisions. You build trust when everybody takes part in the decision.
