Transcript excerpt

Next day no, it's about 09:30 in the morning. Heading down to the beach. Holy seaweed. We're at the beach we were at yesterday. I've never seen this much seaweed in ever. It's 02:00 in the afternoon no, and the winds have definitely picked up. Another update, flights have also been canceled, so my mom and her boyfriend were supposed to fly out today, which was canceled.
