New Yorkers intent on getting blizzard selfie with Juno, according to Google search

Maybe “belfie” should stand for “blizzard selfie” instead of what it actually means.

According to am New York, the third most-Googled question of New York residents pre-blizzard was “how to photograph a blizzard.” Apparently, New Yorkers were really excited to take a selfie with Juno.

Thankfully, this utterly non-urgent question did not beat out inquiries about “what to do in a blizzard” and “how to keep safe from blizzards.”

It did, however, take precedence over questions about how to shovel snow and take care of a baby during a blizzard. Yikes.

Such googling then resulted in images like this:
