Winter Storm Nemo

I don’t take New England weather seriously.

Obviously, this doesn’t come as much of a shock to any of My Faithful Readers as they’ve read my jabs at the – ahem – “extreme weather” we get out this way a couple of times in the past.

Everyone here tends to freak out and completely lose their minds before anything ever happens and nine times out of ten, it never amounts to anything.

That having been said, I’m not entirely sure how I feel about the oncoming snowpocalypse known as “Winter Storm Nemo.”

There has been talk for days about impending blizzard-like conditions that could lock the city up for days with more than two feet of snow.

There has also been some speculation that it won’t do jack squat.

I’ve got no idea what to expect at this point.

They’ve already declared a state of emergency in Boston and shut the city down before even a single snowflake has fallen.

This afternoon, Governor Deval Patrick held a press conference where he basically told everyone to stay the hell at home tomorrow and said he’s shutting down public transportation in the middle of the afternoon on Friday.

Heck, even MIT has boarded up the doors for the day.

Despite all of that evidence that this thing could be a really, really big deal…I’m not sure if I should take this sucker seriously or just post a bunch of “Finding Nemo” related memes and laugh it off like a cocky Midwesterner.

This, My Faithful Readers, is a very complicated dilemma.

What ever shall I do?!

…nah, I’m just messing with you, I’m totes gonna roll with the memes.

Suck it, Nemo! Iowa Rules!
