Hurricane Odile left travelers from across the globe stranded on Thursday after it thrashed Mexico’s Baja California peninsula earlier this week. American Nate McFadden, who took the photo above, said his family waited nearly three hours for a flight back to San Francisco. McFadden estimates that the line was probably three or four times longer than what’s pictured.
