Good morning and a warm welcome to your show,
Sunny Mornings in San Diego. I'm your host, Melissa,
and it's Thursday, June 26. You'll be interested
to know. Eighty years ago today, in 1945, delegates
from 50 nations gathered in San Francisco, California,
to sign the United Nations Charter, establishing
the world's most important international organization.
This monumental event marked a commitment to
fostering global peace, security, and cooperation,
aiming to prevent future conflicts and promote
human rights worldwide. The United Nations has
since played a pivotal role in addressing international
challenges, reflecting humanity's enduring aspiration
for a harmonious and just world. So now you know.
And now, it's time for the SURF Report. Thursday
at Tourmaline and south San Diego. It's looking
clean this morning with knee -to -thigh high
sats rolling in. Waves hold around 2 to 3 feet
throughout the morning, providing great conditions.
Expect the winds to remain onshore at 3 mph,
keeping things smooth as the day progresses.
As the afternoon arrives, watch for conditions
to shift slightly with a bump in wave height.
Best time to ride is at 6 a .m. with a minus
one foot incoming low tide when the southwest
swell is one and a half feet at 13 seconds and
the onshore wind is two mile per hour. The first
high tide Thursday will be four foot just after
1130 a .m. with a two foot low tide at four.
The nearshore GUI at Mission Bay West reads 67
degrees for the water temperature. Friday through
Sunday features a consistent 2 to 3 plus feet
southwest swell, with clean conditions early
Friday and Saturday, ideal for longboarders.
Winds shift to fair by midday, becoming choppy
Sunday afternoon with increasing northwest winds.
Expect bumpy conditions overall on Sunday, while
Friday remains the best day for smoother rides.
Saturday maintains decent surf, but with slight
afternoon bumps. This morning, it's cloudy and
it feels like 66 degrees with no wind. The sunset
will take place at 8 .04 and it will rise again
tomorrow at 5 .43. It looks like we're in for
some partly sunny skies today with a high near
71 and a light breeze. Tonight, expect mostly
cloudy conditions with a low around 61 and very
light winds. Looking ahead in the weather. Expect
mostly sunny skies Friday through Monday with
highs around 75 degrees. Nights will be mostly
cloudy with lows in the low 60s. Enjoy the pleasant

sent you. In local news. Thousands of San Diego
service members are deployed to the Middle East,
with six warships, including the aircraft carrier
USS Carl Vinson, conducting operations amid the
ongoing Israel -Iran conflict. The Vinson, now
in its eighth month of deployment, has been striking
Iran -backed Houthi rebels in Yemen, while U
.S. Air Force B -2 bombers executed weekend bombings
against Iran. Iran retaliated with missile strikes
on a U .S. base in Qatar, causing no casualties.
Vice Admiral Brad Cooper emphasized the considerable
tactical capability of Iran's military. Relief
may be on the way as the USS Gerald Ford departs
for deployment today. Now on to sports. Justin
Herbert, the highly paid quarterback for the
Los Angeles Chargers, is set to lose over $28
million of his salary to taxes. While his average
annual salary of $52 .5 million seems impressive,
California's heavy tax burden will cut that figure
significantly. In fact, Herbert may take home
less than half of his salary after taxes. This
staggering tax bill exceeds what the Chargers
pay some of their other players, highlighting
the financial challenges athletes face in states
with high income taxes. Despite this, the appeal
of living in Los Angeles and playing for a respected
coach remains strong. Yesterday afternoon at
Petco, the Friars edged the Nationals 1 -0. Nick
Pivetta was brilliant. Striking out ten over
seven innings, earning the win as Luis Cereza's
second -inning single brought home the only run.
The Padres' bats remained quiet, but Morihan
secured the save with a perfect ninth. Despite
strong pitching, Mackenzie Gore took the loss
for Washington. San Diego now holds 46 wins and
36 losses, continuing their fight in the division.
Tomorrow afternoon, the Friars take on the Reds
in Cincinnati for game one of a three -game series.
Nick Martinez, with a 4 .40 earned run average,
faces Dylan Cease, who holds a 3 .66. First pitch
at 4 .10 with temperatures around 88 degrees.
In top news, is food really better in Europe?
Many Americans believe their food is unhealthy,
often feeling bloated and tired after consuming
wheat and dairy. Influencers, including Joe Rogan
and Gwyneth Paltrow, have noted they can enjoy
these foods in Europe without discomfort. Claims
suggest that American food contains around 10
,000 chemicals compared to Europe's 400. However,
experts argue that many of these fears are unfounded.
Issues like food safety regulations and ingredient
differences exist. But the notion that banning
specific chemicals will lead to better health
overlooks deeper systemic problems, including
lifestyle and healthcare access. In business
news, Mumble is set to lay off approximately
30 % of its workforce, which equates to around
240 employees. This decision aims to realign
the company's operating structure and enhance
its focus on strategic priorities. Chief Executive

action to restructure to build a company that's
resilient, intentional, and ready for the next
decade. Following this announcement, Bumble raised
its second quarter revenue outlook to between
$244 million and $249 million. The company also
anticipates significant annual cost savings from
this workforce reduction. In crypto movement,

Sunny Morning sent you by. And now, back to the
show. Let's talk science. Scientists have uncovered
a remarkable genetic lineage of ancient hunter
-gatherers in Colombia. which appears to have
no modern descendants. This previously undocumented
group vanished approximately 2 ,000 years ago.
Archaeologists remarked that this discovery was
unexpected as it challenges previous beliefs
about South American ancestry. Researchers analyzed
DNA from 21 individuals at archaeological sites,
revealing that seven belong to this mysterious
population. By 2 ,000 years ago, local genetics
were replaced by Central American populations,
raising intriguing questions about the origins
and disappearance of the Chequia people, as highlighted
by the study. Entertainment News The first new
James Bond in the Amazon era will debut in 2026,
starring in 007 First Light, developed by IO
Interactive. This version of Bond is described
as young, brash, and possessing a robust origin
story, along with a mysterious scar. This marks
