00:00:12,680 --> 00:00:14,640 You'll be interested to know. 4 00:00:14,640 --> 00:00:19,680 212 years ago, today in 1812. 5 00:00:19,680 --> 00:00:25,320 The USS Constitution, commanded by Captain Isaac Hull, won a brilliant victory over the 6 00:00:25,320 --> 00:00:31,760 British frigate, the HMS Guerrier, in the War of 1812. 7 00:00:31,760 --> 00:00:36,640 This significant naval battle, which took place in the Atlantic Ocean, showcased the 8 00:00:36,640 --> 00:00:43,320 superior seamanship and strategic prowess of the American forces. 9 00:00:43,320 --> 00:00:45,400 So now you know. 10 00:00:45,400 --> 00:00:51,600 And now, it's time for the Surf Report. 11 00:00:51,600 --> 00:00:55,100 Expect knee-to-waist high swell throughout the week. 12 00:00:55,100 --> 00:01:00,520 On Monday and Tuesday mornings, conditions will be sunny glassy with light offshore winds, 13 00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:06,240 becoming semi-choppy in the afternoons with stronger onshore winds. 14 00:01:06,240 --> 00:01:11,360 Wednesday and Thursday mornings will be semi-choppy with variable winds, turning bumpy in the 15 00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:13,960 afternoons. 16 00:01:13,960 --> 00:01:18,000 Monday at Tourmaline and South San Diego. 17 00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:22,920 It's looking fair in the morning until 11, at 2 to 3 feet. 18 00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:26,560 And conditions turn choppy until sunset. 19 00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:33,040 Best time to ride is at 7 a.m. with a 2-foot incoming mid-tide when the north-northwest 20 00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:40,680 swell is 1-1½ feet at 14 seconds and the variable

00:01:58,560 This morning it's foggy and feels like 67 degrees with 8 mph wind. 24 00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:05,200 The sunset will take place at 728 and it will rise again tomorrow at 615. 25 00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:10,000 It looks like we're in for some patchy fog early on today, clearing up by late morning 26 00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:16,920 with mostly sunny skies and temperatures near 81 with a northwest breeze. 27 00:02:16,920 --> 00:02:25,440 Tonight expect partly cloudy skies with a low of 68 and light winds. 28 00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:31,120 Looking ahead in the weather, expect patchy fog each morning through Thursday clearing 29 00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:33,440 by mid-morning. 30 00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:39,080 Days will be mostly sunny with highs in the upper 70s to low 80s. 31 00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:45,120 Nights will be partly cloudy with lows in the mid to upper 60s and fog returning late. 32 00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:48,040 Bonjour, food enthusiasts! 33 00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:52,840 This podcast is brought to you by Versailles Cafe and Pastries in Encinitas. 34 00:02:52,840 --> 00:03:00,160 Nestled on El Camino Real South, just north of Encinitas Boulevard, this cafe is a haven 35 00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:02,920 for culinary delights. 36 00:03:02,920 --> 00:03:08,480 Indulge in their amazing Eggs Benedict or their gluten-free crepes. 37 00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:13,280

by and don't forget to tell them. 40 00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:24,060 Sunny mornings send you. 41 00:03:24,060 --> 00:03:32,520 In local news, tonight a marginal supermoon, called both a sturgeon moon and a blue moon, 42 00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:35,600 will be visible worldwide. 43 00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:41,440 This supermoon is full at 1126 a.m. Pacific time but will still be prominent as night 44 00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:43,320 falls on the West Coast. 45 00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:50,320 It is a supermoon because it is full within 90% of its closest approach to Earth, occurring 46 00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:52,380 two days later. 47 00:03:52,380 --> 00:03:58,580 The term blue moon may derive from an Old English phrase meaning betrayer moon. 48 00:03:58,580 --> 00:04:03,120 The sturgeon moon name comes from the Maine farmer's almanac credited to the Algonquin 49 00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:07,420 tribes for the large fish caught this time of year. 50 00:04:07,420 --> 00:04:15,040 This moon, also known as the green corn moon, signifies the first full moon after corn ripens. 51 00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:20,080 Two minor meteor showers will also peak during this lunar cycle, visible from the Northern 52 00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:29,280 Hemisphere in less urban areas with clearer skies. 53 00:04:29,280 --> 00:04:31,640 Now on to sports. 54 00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:37,640 Jordan Spieth, planning for relatively common wrist surgery, hinted after the FedEx St. 55 00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:41,680 Jude Championship that the procedure is imminent. 56 00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:47,340 The Dallas resident, facing a 12-week recovery, aims to be ready for the Hero World Challenge 57 00:04:47,340 --> 00:04:48,720 in December. 58 00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:56,220 Spieth, who is 31 and tied for 68th in the FedEx Cup playoff event, will not advance 59 00:04:56,220 --> 00:04:59,560 to the BMW Championship. 60 00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:04,720 He's troubled by a weak tendon sheath, causing displacement during play. 61 00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:12,560 Spieth's season includes three top-ten finishes, dropping him to 43rd worldwide. 62 00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:20,400 In local sports, the Padres on the road lost to the Rockies, 3-2. 63 00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:27,920 And tonight, they're headed home to take on the Twins for a three-game series. 64 00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:35,720 On top news, Casey Means, doctor and author of the book, Good Energy, reveals that the 65 00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:40,240 path to optimal health begins with food choices. 66 00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:47,520 Our daily micro-decisions about what we eat can alter our genetic and physiological fate. 67 00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:53,480 Means emphasizes that natural foods contain over 5,000 phytochemicals, which impact health 68 00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:55,560 significantly. 69 00:05:55,560 --> 00:06:00,960 She argues that while traditional medical training views nutrition as a non-evidence-based 70 00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:05,680 topic, food is crucial in determining health outcomes. 71 00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:12,760 The choices we make about food act as signaling molecules, influencing gene expression, DNA 72 00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:15,360 folding, and key cell pathways. 73 00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:21,620 Essentially, our bodies are built and maintained by the food we consume. 74 00:06:21,620 --> 00:06:27,600 And business news, streaming services are getting more expensive, and it's time to 75 00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:31,040 take a closer look at your subscriptions. 76 00:06:31,040 --> 00:06:36,880 With prices rising as much as 25% annually, some people are now paying more than they 77 00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:39,800 would for traditional cable. 78 00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:47,240 Major platforms like Netflix, Disney+, and Macs have significantly increased their rates, 79 00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:51,840 and with password sharing crackdowns, the costs keep climbing. 80 00:06:51,840 --> 00:06:56,140 If you're finding it hard to justify these hikes, consider using a subscription tracker 81 00:06:56,140 --> 00:07:01,040 to manage and cut down on unnecessary expenses. 82 00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:07,440 In crypto movement, Bitcoin is just over $58,600. 83 00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:11,040 Ethereum is just over $2,600. 84 00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:16,680 And Solana is $143. 85 00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:20,080 Moving on to a more local vibe. 86 00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:26,040 In our community spotlight on health and wellness, we are working with a national Pilates studio 87 00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:30,200 to bring you some free classes,

00:07:48,220 --> 00:07:54,520 So now you can check out Club Pilates for a free class, with locations in Encinitas, 93 00:07:54,520 --> 00:07:59,780 Solana Beach, Oceanside, La Jolla, and more. 94 00:07:59,780 --> 00:08:03,900 Just be sure to tell them Sunny Morning sent you by. 95 00:08:03,900 --> 00:08:07,600 And now back to the show. 96 00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:09,600 Let's talk science. 97 00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:13,120 Ever wondered if a snake can fart? 98 00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:19,960 Danny Rabioti, a quantitative ecologist, posed this question on Twitter in 2017, sparking 99 00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:22,360 viral interest. 100 00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:29,720 Rabioti and co-author Nick Caruso turned this curiosity into the 2018 New York Times bestseller, 101 00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:31,360 Does it Fart? 102 00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:35,280 The Definitive Field Guide to Animal Flatulence. 103 00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:41,640 They explain that a fart is any gas expelled from the end of an animal opposite its mouth. 104 00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:47,200 Many animals, including humans, hyenas, and manatees, fart. 105 00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:48,560 Obviously. 106 00:08:48,560 --> 00:08:55,280 Notably herring fart to communicate, and the bulls and pupfish farts to survive. 107 00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:59,880 However, bats and birds generally do not fart. 108 00:08:59,880 --> 00:09:05,560 And sloths, well, they absorb and breed out methane instead. 109 00:09:05,560 --> 00:09:10,320 And in entertainment news. 110 00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:17,840 In the new Amazon flick, Jackpot, John Cena and Awkwafina star in a twisted lottery game, 111 00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:23,320 where anyone can claim the prize by murdering the person with the winning ticket. 112 00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:29,440 Directed by Paul Faye, this Amazon feature erupts into nonstop action and comedy. 113 00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:35,360 Awkwafina plays Katie, a former child actress, while Cena's character is a freelance operator 114 00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:37,700 who protects her. 115 00:09:37,700 --> 00:09:44,200 The film's ingenious premise, combat choreography, and witty lines make it an entertaining, albeit 116 00:09:44,200 --> 00:09:46,800 silly, action comedy. 117 00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:53,600 The chemistry between Cena and Awkwafina elevates the movie, making it more enjoyable than expected. 118 00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:59,440 Well, alrighty folks, it's time for the quote of the day. 119 00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:05,960 And today, our quote comes from the American actor and filmmaker, Tom Hanks. 120 00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:07,600 And he said, 121 00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:12,200 You cannot look up at the night sky on the planet Earth and not wonder what it is like 122 00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:15,840 to be up there amongst the stars. 123 00:10:15,840 --> 00:10:21,240 And I always look up at the moon and see it as the single most romantic place within the 124 00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:23,760 cosmos. 125 00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:26,400 And that's a wrap for this morning. 126 00:10:26,400 --> 00:10:32,520 You can check out our Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok for some captivating aerial videos 127 00:10:32,520 --> 00:10:34,760 with local news and the surf reports. 128 00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:37,880 Have an amazing day, my good friends. 129 00:10:37,880 --> 00:11:05,520 We'll see you tomorrow with another episode of Sunny Mornings in San Diego.
