Hurricane Maria is yuge, folks. She’s an unstoppable beast who may bring some big league damage to Puerto Rico. No bueno. According to the wise guys over at CNN, Maria is growing, with winds speed rising up to 165 mph. “No generation has seen a hurricane like this since San Felipe II in 1928,” said Puerto Rico Gov. Ricardo Rosselló. “This is an unprecedented atmospheric system.”
Sounds nuts, right? When one hurricane ends, another one begins. Some peeps are getting nervous over another storm. Meanwhile, others are kicking back, having a laugh and enjoying life with some pretty dank Hurricane Maria memes…

This Twitter user references the classic 1961 film West Side Story, featuring the Maria character spinning like a hurricane…

The next one is pretty blunt about that reference…
Another Humorous Helene over on Twitter made another film reference making light of the hurricane. Twitter user Serina Marshall connected the storm to the 1965 musical The Sound of Music. In the film, a troublesome nun by the name of Maria Von Trapp inspires the other nuns to sing a song with the lyrics, “How do you solve a problem like Maria?”
But of course, this meme reworked the lyrics to make it more hurricane friendly. The meme reads, “Ho do you solve a storm like Maria? How do we cach her clouds and pin them down?”

How’s that sound, Maria?
Here’s some more sound…
Of course, a little bit of Ricky Martin hasn’t hurt anyone, right? Here’s his 1995 hit Maria. Let him the seduce the f*ck out of this hurricane…
Too soon? https://t.co/jJYstjKk4x

Squidward may be the king of skinny jeans. But he’s also pretty pissed, and for good reason too…
Squidward says, “Floridians finding out Hurricane Maria is on its way after Irma just hit last week.”
And of course, the Gene Wilder-Willy Wonka memes simply cannot be avoided in nearly every area of the globe…
Here’s one more Maria meme to send you all to bed with smiles…
