00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:07,880
Good morning and a warm welcome to your show, Sunny Mornings in San Diego.

2
00:00:07,880 --> 00:00:11,600
I'm your host Melissa and it's Monday, July 22nd.

3
00:00:11,600 --> 00:00:15,040
You'll be interested to know.

4
00:00:15,040 --> 00:00:23,640
Ninety-one years ago, today in 1933, Wiley Post, an American aviator, completed the first

5
00:00:23,640 --> 00:00:32,280
solo flight around the world, covering nearly 16,000 miles in seven days, 18 hours and 49

6
00:00:32,280 --> 00:00:33,280
minutes.

7
00:00:33,280 --> 00:00:39,520
This historic journey showcased remarkable advancements in aviation and solidified post

8
00:00:39,520 --> 00:00:44,480
status as a pioneering figure in the field.

9
00:00:44,480 --> 00:00:46,560
So now you know.

10
00:00:46,560 --> 00:00:52,680
And now it's time for the Surf Report.

11
00:00:52,680 --> 00:00:58,160
Expect thigh-to-waist-high south-southwest swell on Monday, building to chest-high by

12
00:00:58,160 --> 00:01:00,880
Tuesday afternoon.

13
00:01:00,880 --> 00:01:07,600
Waist-to-stomach-high southwest swell follows through Wednesday and Thursday.

14
00:01:07,600 --> 00:01:13,720
Morning conditions are glassy, with light winds under 5 mph turning semi-bumpy, with

15
00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:19,920
onshore winds at 5 to 10 mph in the afternoons.

16
00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:26,880
Monday at Tormelene and South San Diego, it's looking clean in the morning until 9 at 2

17
00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:29,400
to 3 feet.

18
00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:33,200
After that, it's looking fair for the rest of the day.

19
00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:40,400
Best time to ride is at 8 a.m. with a one-foot-in coming tide when the southwest swell is 2

20
00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:46,120
feet at 14 seconds and the onshore wind is 4 mph.

21
00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:53,720
The first high tide Monday will be 4 foot at 1130 a.m. with a 2 foot low tide at 415

22
00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:56,520
p.m.

23
00:01:56,520 --> 00:02:03,840
This morning it's mostly cloudy and feels like 69 degrees with 2 mile-per-hour wind.

24
00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:10,880
The sunset will take place at 753 and it will rise again tomorrow at 557.

25
00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:15,720
It looks like we're in for some patchy fog before 11 a.m.

26
00:02:15,720 --> 00:02:22,800
Otherwise mostly sunny with a high near 78 and wind of 5 to 10 mile-per-hour.

27
00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:29,880
Tonight it'll be mostly cloudy with a low around 67.

28
00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:36,120
Looking ahead in the weather, expect patchy fog each night after 11 p.m. and clearing

29
00:02:36,120 --> 00:02:39,320
by mid-morning through Friday.

30
00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:45,560
Fays will be partly to mostly sunny with highs in the upper 70s to low 80s.

31
00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:49,880
Pits will be mostly cloudy with lows in the upper 60s.

32
00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:52,880
Bonjour, food enthusiasts.

33
00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:58,520
This podcast is brought to you by Versailles Cafe and Pastries in Encinitas.

34
00:02:58,520 --> 00:03:04,980
Nestled on El Camino Real South, just north of Encinitas Boulevard, this cafe is a haven

35
00:03:04,980 --> 00:03:07,760
for culinary delights.

36
00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:13,320
Indulge in their amazing eggs Benedict or their gluten-free crepes.

37
00:03:13,320 --> 00:03:18,080
You can grab a panini for lunch or just breeze on through to get your morning coffee.

38
00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:22,080
They are open every day from 8 to 5.

39
00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:25,520
So stop on by and don't forget to tell them.

40
00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:28,900
Sunny mornings send you.

41
00:03:28,900 --> 00:03:35,120
In local news, members of the Clean Coast Collaborative gathered in Imperial Beach on

42
00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:40,920
Saturday to clean up the shore, marking the nonprofit's first beach clean-up.

43
00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:45,160
Their mission is to raise awareness about ongoing sewage pollution from the Tijuana

44
00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:50,160
River Valley and to empower youth to advocate for change.

45
00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:55,720
Lewis Galvin, a founding member, emphasized the personal significance, stating,

46
00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:58,760
It's very personal to me.

47
00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:04,440
Another advocate, 15-year-old Eric Cambros, shared health concerns, noting,

48
00:04:04,440 --> 00:04:07,800
We see how this is affecting our families.

49
00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:13,440
The organization, launched this year, aims to continue clean-ups and push for legislative

50
00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:19,200
action.

51
00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:21,660
Now on to sports.

52
00:04:21,660 --> 00:04:27,920
The Los Angeles Dodgers are gearing up for a significant boost in their pitching lineup.

53
00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:33,000
Tyler Glasnow, the club's all-star right-hander, is set to return from the injured list on

54
00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:37,600
Wednesday to face the San Francisco Giants.

55
00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:42,320
Additionally, manager Dave Roberts announced that Clayton Kershaw will rejoin the rotation

56
00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:48,640
on Thursday, marking his return from off-season shoulder surgery and starting his 17th season

57
00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:50,560
with the team.

58
00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:57,800
Glasnow will not have strict innings limitations, despite having thrown 109 innings this season.

59
00:04:57,800 --> 00:05:04,400
Kershaw's return is timely, as the Dodgers' rotation has struggled recently.

60
00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:11,080
And local sports, the Padres on the road beat the Guardians 2-1.

61
00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:17,320
Tonight, no baseball for us in San Diego, as the Padres are headed to Washington for

62
00:05:17,320 --> 00:05:21,360
a three-game series with the Nationals for Tuesday night.

63
00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:29,200
In top news, immunotherapy is revolutionizing cancer treatment.

64
00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:35,560
A breakthrough occurred in April 2023, when Marcela Moss and Brian Choi, researchers at

65
00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:42,240
Mass General in Boston, treated a patient with glioblastoma using genetically modified

66
00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:44,720
white blood cells.

67
00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:50,160
The patient's tumor, previously the size of a strawberry, almost completely disappeared

68
00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:51,720
overnight.

69
00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:56,200
This remarkable regression was repeated in subsequent patients.

70
00:05:56,200 --> 00:06:02,480
Glioblastoma, a fatal brain cancer, had shown stubborn resistance to traditional treatments.

71
00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:08,840
However, this immunotherapy approach, using engineered T-cells, demonstrated potential

72
00:06:08,840 --> 00:06:12,920
for tackling even the most aggressive cancers.

73
00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:17,440
This method could transform cancer treatment forever.

74
00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:25,200
In business news, Wall Street is eyeing America's booming battery storage sector.

75
00:06:25,200 --> 00:06:30,800
Entrepreneur Sheldon Kimber is installing giant batteries in Texas and California, which

76
00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:37,000
charge during the day using solar power and sell energy at higher prices in the evening.

77
00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:43,080
Kimber, chief executive of Intersect Power, believes the increasing power demand and extreme

78
00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:47,720
weather events will make this a profitable venture.

79
00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:55,240
Intersect Power is raising $837 million for battery projects, which will power nearly

80
00:06:55,240 --> 00:06:56,880
400,000 homes.

81
00:06:56,880 --> 00:07:03,880
The sector is growing rapidly, driven by solar energy and billions of dollars from investors.

82
00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:10,600
In crypto movement, Bitcoin is just under $67,700.

83
00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:14,360
Ethereum is just under $3,500.

84
00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:20,000
And Solana is $181.

85
00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:23,400
Moving on to a more local vibe.

86
00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:29,320
In our community spotlight on health and wellness, we are working with a national Pilates studio

87
00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:33,520
to bring you some free classes, so listen up.

88
00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:38,600
Check out Club Pilates, with several locations in the San Diego area.

89
00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:44,320
Pilates presents a comprehensive wellness approach, cultivating strength, reducing tension

90
00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:48,200
and elevating mental well-being.

91
00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:51,560
Scientific research affirms its benefits.

92
00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:57,840
So now you can check out Club Pilates for a free class, with locations in Encinitas,

93
00:07:57,840 --> 00:08:03,120
Solana Beach, Oceanside, La Jolla and more.

94
00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:07,240
Just be sure to tell them Sunny Morning sent you by.

95
00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:10,960
And now back to the show.

96
00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:11,960
Let's talk science.

97
00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:18,520
A new genetic test, inspired by a mountain rescue dog named Shola, aims to eradicate

98
00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:24,360
progressive retinal atrophy, or PRA, in English, shepherds.

99
00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:31,400
Shola, who went blind due to PRA, led researchers to identify the genetic variant responsible

100
00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:33,520
for the condition.

101
00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:39,200
Catherine Stanbury from the University of Cambridge explained that PRA, which causes

102
00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:46,160
blindness in over 100 dog breeds, has no treatment and is often breed-specific.

103
00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:52,360
The team developed a $48 DNA test to detect the variant, potentially preventing affected

104
00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:54,940
dogs from breeding.

105
00:08:54,940 --> 00:09:01,000
This breakthrough could eliminate PRA in English shepherds, preserving their valuable traits.

106
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:06,240
And in entertainment news.

107
00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:14,520
Twisters is making waves at the box office, with a global gross of $123 million.

108
00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:21,200
While it earned $27.1 million from 76 foreign territories over the weekend, its domestic

109
00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:26,880
performance was stronger, raking in $80.5 million.

110
00:09:26,880 --> 00:09:33,040
The film, directed by Lee Isaac Chung, stars Daisy Edgar-Jones, Glenn Powell and Anthony

111
00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:34,480
Ramos.

112
00:09:34,480 --> 00:09:42,160
Meanwhile, Despicable Me 4 has surpassed $500 million globally, and Inside Out 2 is

113
00:09:42,160 --> 00:09:49,320
nearing $1.4 for $3 billion worldwide, potentially becoming the highest-grossing animated film

114
00:09:49,320 --> 00:09:50,320
in history.

115
00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:56,520
Well, alrighty folks, it's time for the quote of the day.

116
00:09:56,520 --> 00:10:04,480
And today, our quote comes from the Italian polymath and inventor, Leonardo Da Vinci.

117
00:10:04,480 --> 00:10:05,480
And he said,

118
00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:10,400
When once you have tasted flight, you will forever walk the earth with your eyes turned

119
00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:17,040
skyward, for there you have been, and there you will always long to return.

120
00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:19,640
And that's a wrap for this morning.

121
00:10:19,640 --> 00:10:25,760
You can check out our Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok for some captivating aerial videos

122
00:10:25,760 --> 00:10:28,000
with local news and the surf reports.

123
00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:31,040
Have an amazing day, my good friends.

124
00:10:31,040 --> 00:10:59,600
We'll see you tomorrow with another episode of Sunny Mornings in San Diego.
