Good morning and a warm welcome to your show, Sunny Mornings in San Diego.
I'm your host Melissa, and it's Monday, September 23rd.
You'll be interested to know.
One hundred and seventy-eight years ago, today in 1846, astronomer Johann Gottfried
Gall became the first person ever to observe the planet Neptune, the existence of which
had been mathematically predicted by Urbane Gene Joseph Le Verrier and John Cowjadams.
This remarkable discovery expanded our understanding of the solar system and highlighted the power
of mathematical prediction in astronomy.
And tomorrow, we'll dive into the first observation of Uranus.
Alrighty then.
Now it's time for the surf report.
Expect knee-high swell with occasional thigh-high sets on Monday through Wednesday, featuring
semi-glassy morning conditions with offshore winds under 5 miles per hour, turning semi-choppy
in the afternoons with onshore winds of 5 to 15 miles per hour.
Thursday will bring waist-high swell with similar conditions.

It looks like we're in for some patchy fog before 11 a.m., giving way to mostly sunny
skies, with a high near 80, accompanied by a gentle northwest breeze.

Last night on Sunday Night Football, the Kansas City Chiefs improved to 3-0 with a narrow
22-17 victory over the Atlanta Falcons.
The Chiefs defense came up big with a crucial fourth-down stop late in the game to seal
the win, while Patrick Mahomes connected with Juju Smith Schuster for a touchdown.
In another thrilling matchup, the Ravens held off the Cowboys for a 28-25 victory.
Derek Henry's powerful 26-yard touchdown run helped Baltimore secure their first win
of the season.
Tonight, on Monday Night Football, the Buffalo Gills, who are riding a 2-0 start, will host
the winless Jacksonville Jaguars.
Buffalo's defense, led by Von Miller, aims to continue their dominant play, while quarterback
Josh Allen leads a high-powered offense.
The Jaguars, still searching for their first win, hope Trevor Lawrence and Travis Edien
can spark a much-needed turnaround.
In local sports On Sunday, the Chargers fell to the Steelers
20-10 in Pittsburgh, with Justin Herbert leaving the game with a high-angle injury after throwing
for 168 yards and a touchdown to Quentin Johnston.
The Bulls struggled offensively, especially in the second half, while Pittsburgh's Justin
Fields threw for two touchdowns, keeping the Steelers unbeaten at 3-0.
The Chargers' defense allowed 346 yards and couldn't stop the Steelers' late surge,
dropping Los Angeles to 2-1.
Herbert's injury status will be crucial as they prepare to host the undefeated Chiefs
at SoFi Stadium this Sunday in a key AFC West showdown.

On top news, in a revealing exploration, a recent essay discusses how pediatricians
may have unintentionally contributed to the peanut allergy epidemic.
By advising parents to avoid exposing children to peanuts until the age of three, doctors
transformed a rare issue into a widespread health concern.
Observations from two students, Asamganiyam Minking and Faith Magwense, highlight the
perplexing prevalence of peanut allergies in the United States, contrasting it with
their experiences in Africa, where such allergies are virtually non-existent.
This situation raises questions about dietary practices and public health policies in America,
as the fears surrounding peanut allergies grows.
In business news, Boeing has announced the departure of Ted Colbert, CEO of Boeing Defense
Space and Security, marking a significant shift in upper management.
While many may point to the failed test flight of the Starliner as the main reason, this
explanation oversimplifies the situation.
New CEO Kelly Ortberg's first major interaction with the division was indeed during this incident,
which may have been the tipping point.
The Starliner, a reusable space capsule designed to compete with SpaceX's Dragon capsule,
is part of NASA's Commercial Crew Transport program, but has faced numerous delays since
its contract award in 2014.
In crypto movement, Bitcoin is just over $63,000, Ethereum is just under $2,400, and Solana

Let's talk tech.
Lehigh Valley Health Network will pay $65 million after hackers leaked nude patient
photos, highlighting the serious risks of cyber attacks for health care organizations.
In March 2023, a Pennsylvania woman, referred to as Jane Doe, learned that hackers had obtained
and posted her naked photos while she underwent radiation treatments.
The health network refused to pay a ransom of more than $5 million.
Jane Doe, in her 50s, became the lead plaintiff in a class action lawsuit, claiming that the
organization failed to protect sensitive patient information.
This incident underscores the alarming frequency of such breaches in American health care.
Entertainment news.

residency in Sin City.

Well, alrighty folks, it's time for the quote of the day.
And today, our quote comes from the French novelist and pioneer of science fiction, Jules
Verne.
And he said, put two ships in the open sea, without wind or tide, and at last they will
come together.
Throw two planets into space, and they will fall one on the other.
Place two enemies in the midst of a crowd, and they will inevitably meet.
It is a fatality, a question of time.
That is all.
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.
