Good morning and a warm welcome to your show, Sunny Mornings in San Diego.
I'm your host Melissa and it's Monday, May 20th.
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 151 years ago, today in 1873.
Levi Strauss and Jacob Davis were granted a patent for using copper rivets to strengthen
certain areas of trousers, notably pocket corners.
The patent was credited with giving rise to blue jeans.
So now you know.
And now you know what time it is.
It's time for the surf report.
Expect overlapping southwest swells to continue into this week, with the next pulse peaking
on Tuesday.
Many spots with decent exposure are looking at waist to shoulder, an occasional head-high
surf Monday through Wednesday, while good spots produce over headsets.
Standout spots in parts of San Diego should hit a couple feet overhead by Tuesday, Monday
at Tourmaline and South San Diego.
It's looking fair at 4 to 6 feet until noon, so get out there early.
After that, it's looking pretty choppy until sunset.
Best time to ride is at 6 a.m. with a 2-foot incoming tide, when the west-southwest swell
is 3 feet at 17 seconds, and the onshore wind is 6 mile per hour.
The first high tide Monday will be 3 and a half feet at 830 a.m. with a 2-foot low tide,
just after 130.
The nearshore buoy at Scripps in La Jolla reads 64 degrees for the water temperature.

The sunset will take place at 744 and it will rise again tomorrow at 545.
It looks like we're in for some patchy drizzle before 11 a.m.

structure, making it easier for teams to secure funding without relying solely on individual
wealthy owners.
Discussions are ongoing and any changes would need approval from the league's ownership
group.
Last night in local sports, the Padres on the road beat the Braves 3-0.
And today, they're back at it with a double header.
It's a beautiful day for a game.
Let's play, too.
In top news, high-intensity interval training known as HIIT and strength training both offer
unique health benefits.
HIIT boosts cardiovascular health and burns calories rapidly.
Strength training builds muscle, enhances metabolism, and strengthens bones.
Additionally, both exercise types improve mental health and help manage chronic conditions
like diabetes and heart disease.
Combining HIIT and strength training can optimize overall fitness by providing cardiovascular
and muscular benefits, leading to a well-rounded exercise regimen.
In business news, this week, markets are closely watching NVIDIA's earnings report, expected
to reflect strong demand for AI chips.

impact the broader tech sector.

Well, alrighty folks, it's time for the quote of the day.
And today, our quote comes from the creator of your favorite jeans, Levi Strauss.
He said,
In the old days, people used to risk their lives in India or in the Americas in order
to bring back products which now seem to us to have been of comically little worth.
And that's a wrap for this morning.
