Good morning and a warm welcome to your show, Sunny Mornings in San Diego.
I'm your host Melissa and it's Tuesday, April 30th.
Coming up on today's show, we'll get into the surf report and the weather outlook, then
we'll jump into some local news and a few interesting happenings in business, science
and entertainment.
At first, you'll be interested to know, 235 years ago, today in 1789, George Washington,
the first president of the United States, was inaugurated at Federal Hall in New York
City addressing his constituency on the proceedings of a new and free government.
So now you know.
And now you know what time it is.
It's time for the surf report.
Expect steep-angled, playful northwest swell mix Tuesday with waste-to-stomach-high waves
at decent spots and chest-ahead high waves at focal points.
Mornings offer the best conditions with weak offshore to light and variable wind.
A modest new southwest, or south-southwest swell moves in later in the week and into
the weekend with most breaks below waist-high but a few chest-high sets at South County
focal points.
Tuesday at Tourmaline and South San Diego.
It's looking fair at 3 to 5 feet most of the day with a little patch of chop in the
late afternoon.
Best time to ride is at 7 a.m. with a 1.5 foot outgoing tide when the south swell is
4.5 feet at 11 seconds and the onshore wind is 6 mile per hour.
The first low tide Tuesday will be 0 feet at 10 a.m. with a 3 foot high tide at 6.
The nearshore buoy at Scripps in La Jolla reads 63 degrees for the water temperature.
Checking out the weather in the San Diego area.

In local news, a San Diego Zoo team recently visited China to meet Yan Chuan and Xin Bao,
two giant pandas set to arrive at Balboa Park possibly this summer.
Yan Chuan, almost 5, is known for his gentle nature, while 4-year-old Xin Bao is recognized
as a witty introvert.
These pandas symbolize a renewed collaboration as San Diego anticipates reintroducing pandas
after a 2019 departure and at a 23-year loan period.
The team also discussed research and conservation strategies with Chinese experts during their
visit.
Now on to sports.
After facing strong criticism over their new uniforms, Major League Baseball and Nike are
set to make significant changes.
Players and fans expressed dissatisfaction with issues like unreadable nameplates and
moisture issues, prompting MLB to demand revisions.
A memo from the MLB Players Association highlighted these concerns and confirmed that Nike will
address the issues by the 2025 season, reversing many of the initial changes to the uniforms,
which included problematic moisture handling and durability during play.
Last night in local sports, the Padres at home lost to the Reds, 5-2.
The Lakers on the road lost to the Nuggets in Game 5, 108-106, and they're out of the
playoffs.
Tonight, the Padres are at home to take on the Reds in Game 2 of the 3-game series.
In top news, starting your day with vegetables instead of carbohydrates can lead to better
control of blood sugar levels.
Research suggests that eating non-starchy vegetables before carbs helps reduce glucose
spikes, potentially benefiting both people with diabetes and those with normal blood
sugar levels.
This approach, which involves eating vegetables 10 minutes before carbohydrates, also helps
curb hunger by affecting hunger hormones, leading to potentially lower calorie intake
and better overall nutrient consumption.
In business news, ByteDance, the owner of TikTok, has confirmed that it will not be
selling its U.S. operations of the platform despite a new U.S. law that could potentially
force such a sale.
This decision follows recent speculation about a possible sale, which ByteDance refutes as
untrue.
This stance comes after the U.S. passed legislation citing national security concerns, which TikTok
has countered by denying any sharing of U.S. user data with the Chinese government.
TikTok remains a major player in the U.S. market with around 170 million users and continues
to challenge the legislation in court.
In crypto movement, Bitcoin is just over $63,000, Ethereum is $3,100, and Solana is $136.
Moving on to a more local vibe.

Solana Beach, Oceanside, La Jolla, and more.
Just be sure to tell them Sunny Morning sent you by.
And now back to the show.
Let's talk science.
An engineer claims to have developed a new propulsion system that defies traditional
physics by not requiring propellant to produce thrust.
Dubbed an improbable engine, this technology, created by former NASA engineer Charles Buller
and his team at Exodus Propulsion Technologies, reportedly harnesses a new force that allows
for the counteraction of Earth's gravity.
This breakthrough could revolutionize space travel if validated, but it remains highly
controversial and unproven, echoing the skepticism faced by previous attempts.
Tickorous independent testing is necessary to verify these extraordinary claims.
And in entertainment news, CBS is revamping its NFL Today lineup, introducing Matt Ryan
to the studio team for the 2024 season.
He joins James Brown, Nate Berlson, Phil Cower, and J.J. Watt as Phil Sims and Boomer S. Syison
X at the show.
Ouch.
Where's the loyalty?
Ryan transitions from game analysis to the pregame desk, highlighting his first successful
year with CBS Sports.
S. Syison, meanwhile, continues with CBS on the Boomer and Geo show, and Sims departs
after a significant tenure.
Ryan expressed enthusiasm about contributing to the legacy of the iconic show.
Well, alrighty folks, it's time for the quote of the day.
And today, our quote comes from Henry Ford, the creator of the Model T and the Ford Motor
Company said, remember that the airplane takes off against the wind, not with it.
So if you're feeling like the wind is slowing you down lately, find a way to let it propel
you rather than fight against it.
And that's a wrap for this morning.
You can check out our Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok for some captivating aerial videos
with local news and the surf reports.
Have an amazing day, my good friends.
We'll see you tomorrow with another episode of Sunny Mornings in San Diego.
