BackupPC_nightly will not "catch up" if it misses a night. It will run at 1am the following night provided the server is running. There's no harm skipping a night - there will be a slight increase in pool storage since unused pool files won't be deleted until later, and any warning emails will go out the next time BackupPC_nightly runs.
