I wish I was kidding.


In case you didn't know, and you probably don't because I didn't know until yesterday, there's a massive storm headed for Shanghai. When I originally saved this picture from the weather.com report, I had no idea of the storm. I saved it to note the absurdity that is Shanghai weather. It was not until yesterday that my coworkers brought up the topic of the storm did I realize what was headed my way. Back in New Jersey, two inches of snow would warrant a big notice of impending doom in the coming days on the weather.com website. However, a storm with winds of potentially 100mph or so isn't of much importance it seems. Thanks weather.com!

P.S. The above weather forecast has been typical of Shanghai for the past week or two.
