Today New Hampshire is in the grip of the first significant snowstorm of the year. Schools are cancelled (and schoolchildren across the state travel en mass to the local ski areas). Meetings are postponed. Shelters are (probably) being readied. The WMUR NewsNine "Storm Watch" is up and running– reporting with breathless excitement as if armageddon is at hand (or Barack Obama was back in town).

Run for your lives!!! It’s SNOWING!!!!

What we have here is what used to be called a good ‘ole fashioned Nor’easter. Now, it’s a "mega-storm", indicative of the "extremes" of global warming… If you ask me, it’s all BS.
