Get out there in the morning and before you try starting it pull off the air cleaner.
The choke should be closed so you will need to manually hold it open.
While looking into the carburetor move the throttle linkage toward the full throttle position.
You should see a stream of fuel spraying into the carburetor from the accelerator pump.
-If the choke was not closed or near closed depending on temperature it needs attention.
-If there was no stream of fuel then either the bowl is empty because it is leaking down into the intake overnight as others have said.
Or
-The cup of the accelerator pump has dried out and is not doing it's job.
Verify this by going through your usual routine to start the engine then shut it off and check for fuel spray from the accelerator pump like was previously described.
-Good spray now would indicate the accelerator pump in the carburetor is ok and the fuel leaking down overnight would be the likely problem that needs to be addressed.
If your problem was ignition related I would have expected you would have been describing black smoke, raw fuel odor and backfiring as symptoms.
