Dont worry, if it gets to windy, they will fly around it.

Must be flying into Denver, I was too until I called my airline and they changed my flight for free. That's what I would reccommend unless you like sleeping on airport floors.

if the plane is flying with the wind you will get there much faster if it is flying against the winds have to be 300 mph

I do believe there are only limitations for crosswinds on takeoff and landing.
I've flown in winds that had me moving backwards across the ground in airplanes, and in helicopters I've hovered showing 60 knots of airspeed.
There was this one time, in Louisiana, I was showing 120 knots airspeed, and 200 knots groundspeed.

Winds have to be pretty strong--- well over 50mph--- to cause a problem for planes. In lower winds, you may have a bumpy ride and it may feel pretty creepy but the plane won't crash.
