i didn't feel like driving home in the storm.
i didn't want to drive home in a storm.
driving home in a storm didn't seem very appealing.
fancy can mean "like someone"
I fancy Jason.
- I have feelings for Jason. I think Jason is attractive. I like Jason.
however, you can also use it when talking about an object or an activity (such as your example) it still means like.
if you fancy something, xmyou think it sounds/looks like something that is good/ something you want to do.
I fancy some icecream. = i crave some icecream. I would like to eat some icecream. I feel like eating some icecream.
hope this helps :)

Fancy here basically means a desire or liking something
Examples: I didn't fancy eating another burger yesterday
I fancy this jumper
Fancy is used this way mostly in the UK, not the US.
Fancy in the US and UK can also mean posh or fashionable
It can be used like this:
That is a fancy red shirt you're wearing
You're house looks very fancy john!

Or specifically here it means I "WOULDN'T LIKE" to drive home in the storm.
"I don't FANCY talking to him" = "I WOULDN'T much LIKE to talk to him"
Is this helpful? ^^'
