I never make any assumptions when it comes to fuel. Wait the 10 mins, see what is going on, then if you can start the approach then, go for it. If not, divert. Your job is to get everybody to the destination safely. If you can do that, getting them there on time is the next thing on the priority list. If safety isn't reasonably assured, then completely forget about being on time until safety is assured again.
