I don't know, since I've always made the meringue at the same time as
the pie and it never lasts long enough to weep or otherwise spoil.

If you make the pie ahead of time and the meringue spoils, you could
always take it off and spread the pie with whipped cream. It won't be
the same but it will still be delicious.
