If you haven't heard yet, there's a massive blizzard storm weather event snow thing that's about to engulf the northeastern part of the U.S.

The Weather Channel has nicknamed the menacing storm Nemo, for some reason.

In any event, thanks to Nemo, Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport has announced a crapload of cancelled and delayed flights Friday due to the incoming snowpocalypse.

As of 3:30 p.m., 69 arrival and departure flights have been cancelled. The airport says an additional 31 arriving and departing flights have been delayed.

(Palm Beach International Airport is also reporting several flight cancellations)

You can check here for latest flight info, or contact the airline, or call the airport directly at 1-866-435-9355.

And remember, no matter how frustrating or irritating it is to deal with this weather event, at least it's not raining spiders like it is in Santo Antônio da Platina, Brazil.

So, you know, perspective.

Also, GAHHH!!!!
