00:30I heard that this is the biggest storm in the past 19 years.
00:37But I don't care.
00:39I used to be in the Navy.
00:41I used to sail on the sea.
00:44I used to deal with rain and wind every day.
00:47So today, I'm 84 years old.
00:49I came out to take a look.
01:00Actually, I didn't plan to go out today.
01:10Because the power in my house has been cut off.
01:13The room is very hot.
01:15Then I saw that the weather outside was a little better, so I came out.
01:20If you look at it now, you may feel better.
01:24At present, this area is not very serious.
01:27I don't know what will happen tonight or tomorrow.
01:30But I'm still worried.
01:32Because there is little material in the house.
01:34I'm afraid that we can't go out if the typhoon is big.
01:37And there is no food.
01:39So I think the weather is a little better now.
01:41Maybe I can go out and buy something.
