Good morning and a warm welcome to your show,

00:00:04.040 --> 00:00:08.839
Sunny Mornings in San Diego. I'm your host, Melissa,

00:00:09.119 --> 00:00:13.619
and it's Wednesday, August 13th. You'll be interested

00:00:13.619 --> 00:00:19.219

began constructing the Berlin Wall, a formidable

00:00:22.179 --> 00:00:26.460
barrier that divided East and West Berlin. This

00:00:26.460 --> 00:00:29.179
monumental structure stood as a stark symbol

00:00:29.179 --> 00:00:32.200
of the Cold War. separating families and communities

00:00:32.200 --> 00:00:36.200
for nearly three decades. Its eventual fall in

00:00:36.200 --> 00:00:39.560
1989 marked a triumphant moment of unity and

00:00:39.560 --> 00:00:42.560
freedom, inspiring the world with the resilience

00:00:42.560 --> 00:00:47.939
of the human spirit. So now you know. And now,

00:00:48.039 --> 00:00:54.579
it's time for the Surf Report. Wednesday at Tourmaline

00:00:54.579 --> 00:00:58.979

with waist -to -chest -high sets rolling in.

00:01:02.159 --> 00:01:04.939
Waves hold around 3 to 5 feet throughout the

00:01:04.939 --> 00:01:07.719
morning, providing decent conditions for surfers.

00:01:08.519 --> 00:01:11.739
Expect the winds to remain sideshore at 3 to

00:01:11.739 --> 00:01:15.599
4 mph, keeping things manageable as the day progresses.

00:01:16.959 --> 00:01:21.159
Best time to ride is at 6 a .m. with a 1 -foot

00:01:21.159 --> 00:01:24.920
low tide when the southwest swell is 3 feet at

00:01:24.920 --> 00:01:28.400
15 seconds. and the side -shore wind is 3 mile

00:01:28.400 --> 00:01:32.200
per hour. The first low tide on Wednesday will

00:01:32.200 --> 00:01:36.299
be a half -foot at 6 .15 a .m., followed by a

00:01:36.299 --> 00:01:40.760
5 -feet high tide at 12 .45. The near -shore

00:01:40.760 --> 00:01:45.379
GUI at Mission Bay West reads 71 degrees for

00:01:45.379 --> 00:01:49.079
the water temperature. Thursday through Saturday

00:01:49.079 --> 00:01:51.959
features fair surf conditions with consistent

00:01:51.959 --> 00:01:56.500
3 to 4 feet waves. Light winds around 4 to 7

00:01:56.500 --> 00:01:59.659
mph from the south create manageable sessions

00:01:59.659 --> 00:02:04.239
early on. However, Friday and Saturday see increasing

00:02:04.239 --> 00:02:07.500
choppy conditions with winds escalating to 10

00:02:07.500 --> 00:02:12.340
to 13 mph, making it less appealing. Overall,

00:02:12.500 --> 00:02:15.560
expect rideable waves, but prepare for rougher

00:02:15.560 --> 00:02:20.129
paddles as the weekend progresses. This morning,

00:02:20.229 --> 00:02:23.810
it's cloudy and it feels like 69 degrees with

00:02:23.810 --> 00:02:28.949
no wind. The sunset will take place at 737 and

00:02:28.949 --> 00:02:33.129
it will rise again tomorrow at 613. It looks

00:02:33.129 --> 00:02:35.530
like we're in for some partly sunny skies today

00:02:35.530 --> 00:02:39.270
with a high near 75 and a light southwest breeze.

00:02:40.250 --> 00:02:44.490

So stop on by and don't forget to tell them Sunny

00:03:40.870 --> 00:03:46.530
Morning sent you. In local news, in a surprising

00:03:46.530 --> 00:03:49.349
twist, President Donald Trump's recent spending

00:03:49.349 --> 00:03:52.530
package, often criticized for its cuts to social

00:03:52.530 --> 00:03:55.830
services, also brings a significant boost to

00:03:55.830 --> 00:03:59.750
affordable housing in California. The bill increases

00:03:59.750 --> 00:04:02.949
the low -income housing tax credit, a vital funding

00:04:02.949 --> 00:04:05.370
source for affordable housing projects statewide,

00:04:05.689 --> 00:04:08.009
which advocates say could double the production

00:04:08.009 --> 00:04:11.750
of low -rent units over the next decade. Matt

00:04:11.750 --> 00:04:14.509
Schwartz, the president and CEO of the California

00:04:14.509 --> 00:04:17.629
Housing Partnership. emphasized that this change

00:04:17.629 --> 00:04:20.850
is a huge shot in the arm for a struggling sector.

00:04:21.629 --> 00:04:24.850
While challenges remain, including rising costs

00:04:24.850 --> 00:04:27.610
and funding shortages, experts are optimistic

00:04:27.610 --> 00:04:30.689
that California could see thousands of new affordable

00:04:30.689 --> 00:04:34.110
homes each year thanks to this unexpected support.

00:04:39.029 --> 00:04:43.810
Now on to sports. Major League Baseball has announced

00:04:43.810 --> 00:04:46.689
its postseason schedule for this season, confirming

00:04:46.689 --> 00:04:49.269
that the flexible start date for the World Series

00:04:49.269 --> 00:04:53.089
has been eliminated. This decision follows last

00:04:53.089 --> 00:04:55.490
year's attempt to accommodate potential early

00:04:55.490 --> 00:05:00.009
finishes, but it proved impractical. As a result,

00:05:00.310 --> 00:05:02.810
the World Series is now set to begin on Friday,

00:05:03.129 --> 00:05:06.949

but left seven runners on base. San Diego finished

00:05:50.980 --> 00:05:54.980

General Electric and United Nuclear. have reached

00:06:30.629 --> 00:06:33.649
a U .S. consent decree mandating a cleanup of

00:06:33.649 --> 00:06:36.670
uranium mine waste, estimated to cost nearly

00:06:36.670 --> 00:06:41.629
$63 million. This effort will take over a decade,

00:06:41.870 --> 00:06:45.410
focusing on sites in New Mexico and the Navajo

00:06:45.410 --> 00:06:48.689
Nation. The Justice Department announced that

00:06:48.689 --> 00:06:51.550
the companies will excavate approximately 1 million

00:06:51.550 --> 00:06:54.410
cubic yards of waste from the Northeast Church

00:06:54.410 --> 00:06:58.170
Rock Mine Superfund site. This mine operated

00:06:58.170 --> 00:07:03.129
from 1967 to 1982 and was a key source of uranium

00:07:03.129 --> 00:07:06.889
ore. The Environmental Protection Agency has

00:07:06.889 --> 00:07:10.029
previously mandated shorter -term cleanups, but

00:07:10.029 --> 00:07:12.550
risks remain for hazardous substance release.

00:07:13.490 --> 00:07:18.569
In business news, in a recent analysis, Zillow

00:07:18.569 --> 00:07:21.689
senior economist Orf de Waangri highlights why

00:07:21.689 --> 00:07:26.449
2025 may be a good time to buy a house. After

00:07:26.449 --> 00:07:30.029
years of rising prices, Zillow forecasts a zero.

00:07:30.689 --> 00:07:34.310
8 % drop in home values by year -end, marking

00:07:34.310 --> 00:07:38.329
the first decline since 2011. With high mortgage

00:07:38.329 --> 00:07:41.430
rates stifling competition and inventory increasing,

00:07:41.810 --> 00:07:45.670
buyers currently have more leverage. DiValli

00:07:45.670 --> 00:07:48.310
advises against waiting for market timing, as

00:07:48.310 --> 00:07:52.500
mortgage rates can fluctuate unexpectedly. He

00:07:52.500 --> 00:07:55.180
notes that local markets vary with affordability

00:07:55.180 --> 00:07:58.620
improving in areas like Texas and Florida, despite

00:07:58.620 --> 00:08:03.100
rising insurance costs. Sellers sitting on substantial

00:08:03.100 --> 00:08:06.100
equity are less likely to rush into the market.

00:08:06.800 --> 00:08:11.759
In crypto movement, Bitcoin is unchanged at about

00:08:11.759 --> 00:08:19.040
$119 ,000. Ethereum is up 9 % to just under $4

00:08:19.040 --> 00:08:28.730
,700. And XRP is up 3 % to $3 .24. Moving on

00:08:28.730 --> 00:08:32.909

tech. CoreWeave's revenue has more than tripled,

00:09:23.809 --> 00:09:26.629
reflecting the soaring demand for artificial

00:09:26.629 --> 00:09:30.149
intelligence. In the second quarter, the company

00:09:30.149 --> 00:09:35.490
reported revenue of $1 .2 billion, up from $395

00:09:35.490 --> 00:09:39.769
million a year earlier. However, CoreWeave also

00:09:39.769 --> 00:09:45.539
faced a loss of $290 million. Chief Executive

00:09:45.539 --> 00:09:48.759
Michael Entrader noted the need to scale rapidly

00:09:48.759 --> 00:09:55.480
to meet this demand. Shares fell 7 .6 % to $137

00:09:55.480 --> 00:10:03.279

00:10:06.899 --> 00:10:10.200
positive shift. with comic book films like Superman

00:10:10.200 --> 00:10:13.500
and the fantastic Four First Steps exceeding

00:10:13.500 --> 00:10:17.860
expectations. Original projects such as the IMAX

00:10:17.860 --> 00:10:21.659
release of F1 and Ryan Coogler's vampire thriller

00:10:21.659 --> 00:10:24.279
Sinners prove there is still strong interest

00:10:24.279 --> 00:10:28.879
outside of established franchises. However, many

00:10:28.879 --> 00:10:31.600
exceptional independent films have struggled

00:10:31.600 --> 00:10:33.740
to find their audience due to limited releases.

00:10:34.580 --> 00:10:38.450
Among these, Little Prayer, On Swift Horses,

00:10:38.549 --> 00:10:42.389
Omaha, and My Dead Friend Zoe showcase talent

00:10:42.389 --> 00:10:45.230
and storytelling deserving of recognition in

00:10:45.230 --> 00:10:50.070
a year filled with blockbuster hits. Well, alrighty

00:10:50.070 --> 00:10:54.129
folks, it's time for the quote of the day. And

00:10:54.129 --> 00:10:56.830
today, our quote comes from the American author

00:10:56.830 --> 00:11:00.970
and motivational speaker, Helen Keller. And she

00:11:00.970 --> 00:11:05.350
said, Alone, we can do so little. Together, we

00:11:05.350 --> 00:11:09.899
can do so much. And that's a wrap for this morning.
