A senior meteorologist 00:07:55.779 --> 00:07:59.920 at My Radar emphasizes that this will be an unprecedented 00:07:59.920 --> 00:08:03.980 event for Jamaica. The storm could lead to widespread 00:08:03.980 --> 00:08:07.600 destruction, flooding, and long -lasting humanitarian 00:08:07.600 --> 00:08:11.720 crises.

And now, back to the show. Let's talk 00:10:19.090 --> 00:10:24.090 tech. Amazon plans to lay off as many as 30 ,000 00:10:24.090 --> 00:10:27.330 workers, starting as early as Tuesday, according 00:10:27.330 --> 00:10:31.029 to sources familiar with the matter. This latest 00:10:31.029 --> 00:10:33.649 cost -cutting move aims to slim down the company 00:10:33.649 --> 00:10:37.230 and conserve cash. The job cuts could affect 00:10:37.230 --> 00:10:40.289 roughly 10 % of the corporate workforce, spanning 00:10:40.289 --> 00:10:43.370 across various business units, including human 00:10:43.370 --> 00:10:48.019 resources and cloud computing. Amazon chief executive 00:10:48.019 --> 00:10:51.659 Andy Jassy has been reducing expenses, especially 00:10:51.659 --> 00:10:54.460 as the company invests in artificial intelligence. 00:10:55.539 --> 00:10:58.600 These layoffs would be the largest since 2022, 00:10:59.139 --> 00:11:03.700 when around 27 ,000 roles were eliminated. Amazon 00:11:03.700 --> 00:11:06.899 is also leveraging technology to boost efficiency 00:11:06.899 --> 00:11:15.960 and reduce the need for human workers. The new 00:11:15.960 --> 00:11:19.320 biopic, Springsteen, Deliver Me From Nowhere, 00:11:19.700 --> 00:11:22.179 starring Jeremy Allen White, has struggled at 00:11:22.179 --> 00:11:25.419 the box office, making just $9 million during 00:11:25.419 --> 00:11:29.179 its opening weekend in North America. Despite 00:11:29.179 --> 00:11:32.279 Bruce Springsteen's iconic status, the film fell 00:11:32.279 --> 00:11:37.240 short of its $55 million budget. Experts suggest 00:11:37.240 --> 00:11:40.179 Springsteen's clean image may have hindered its 00:11:40.179 --> 00:11:42.980 success, as his life lacks the dramatic peaks 00:11:42.980 --> 00:11:46.980 of other musical icons. With mixed reviews, the 00:11:46.980 --> 00:11:50.440 film is unlikely to compete for awards, contrasting 00:11:50.440 --> 00:11:53.759 with successful biopics like Bohemian Rhapsody. 00:11:54.919 --> 00:11:58.340 The top film this weekend was Chainsaw Man, an 00:11:58.340 --> 00:12:01.960 anime that earned 17 million dollars, showcasing 00:12:01.960 --> 00:12:04.759 the growing popularity of Japanese animation. 00:12:06.399 --> 00:12:09.240 Well, alrighty folks, it's time for the quote 00:12:09.240 --> 00:12:12.960 of the day. And today... Our quote comes from 00:12:12.960 --> 00:12:16.539 the American poet and essayist Walt Whitman. 00:12:17.419 --> 00:12:21.259 And he said, the powerful play goes on, and you 00:12:21.259 --> 00:12:25.360 may contribute a verse. And that's a wrap for 00:12:25.360 --> 00:12:28.320 this morning. You can check out our Instagram, 00:12:28.799 --> 00:12:32.019 YouTube, and TikTok for some captivating aerial 00:12:32.019 --> 00:12:35.279 videos with local news and the surf reports. 00:12:36.460 --> 00:12:39.090 Have an amazing day, my good friends.
