Good morning and a warm welcome to your show,
Sunny Mornings in San Diego. I'm your host, Melissa,
and it's Thursday, October 2nd. You'll be interested
to know. 189 years ago, today in 1836, the naturalist
Charles Darwin returned to England after a five
-year voyage aboard the ship Beagle. carrying
specimens and observations that would inspire
his theory of evolution by natural selection,
a milestone in biological science and human understanding
of life. So now you know. And now, it's time
for the Surf Report. Thursday at Tourmaline.
This morning it's looking fair with two plus
feet waves. Conditions are clean until around
10 when it shifts to choppy as the wind comes
onshore at six miles per hour. I expect the swell
to build slightly by the afternoon, reaching
up to three to four feet with continued choppy
conditions. Best time to ride is at 7 a .m. with
a four -foot high tide when the southwest swell
is one and a half feet at 13 seconds and the
offshore wind is three mile per hour. The first
high tide on Thursday will be 4 feet at 7 .45
a .m., followed by a 2 .5 -foot low tide at 12
.30. The nearshore buoy at Mission Bay West reads
70 degrees for the water temperature. Friday
offers clean conditions with waves around 3 to
4 feet early, but choppy conditions develop by
midday as winds shift. Saturday remains fair
with consistent 3 plus foot sets, though onshore
winds create some chop in the afternoon. Sunday
sees a steady 2 to 3 foot swell with clean conditions
throughout, making it the most favorable day
of the period. This morning, there's patchy fog
and it feels like 66 degrees with 5 mile per
hour wind. The sunset will take place at 6 .33.
and it will rise again tomorrow at 646. It looks
like we're in for some patchy fog early today,
but it should clear up by mid -morning, leading
to mostly sunny skies with a high near 75 and
a light northwest breeze. Tonight, expect patchy
fog after 11 p .m., mostly cloudy skies, and
a low around 63, with continued light winds.
Looking ahead in the weather. Friday through
Sunday will be mostly sunny, with highs near
74 on Friday and Saturday, then around 73 on
Sunday, and northwest winds 5 to 10 miles per
hour on Friday. Nights will be mostly cloudy
with patchy fog after 11 p .m. and lows around
61 into Monday, while Monday afternoon turns
partly sunny, with highs near 72. Bonjour, food

news, the County Board of Supervisors will consider
a proposed housing development in the communities
of Harmony Grove and Elfin Forest, opposed by
some residents concerned about wildfire evacuation
points. The Planning Commission recently approved
the Harmony Grove Village South Project. which
includes 453 units and various amenities. Opponents
argue that the project has only one evacuation
point, potentially adding 1 ,000 vehicles to
a two -lane road. Seven wildfire scientists and
safety experts warn that the development would
expose residents to extreme wildfire risk. In
response, developers claim they have implemented
measures to mitigate fire danger. But residents
remain unconvinced. Now onto sports. The Big
Ten is in discussions about a private capital
deal that would infuse at least $2 billion into
the league and its schools, sources told ESPN
on Wednesday. The discussions include a 10 -year
extension of the league's grant of rights until
2046, ensuring long -term stability. The private
capital deal and grant of rights extension have
been discussed for months, presenting a distinct
blow to outside entities attempting to form super
leagues. A decision on the private capital deal
is expected soon, with three entities under consideration.
The setup being discussed is the formation of
a new commercial entity, Big Ten Enterprises,
to house all revenue generation. And tonight
on Thursday Night Football, The 3 -in -1 49ers
are at the 3 -in -1 Rams. Kickoff is at 8 .15
p .m. on Amazon Prime Video. Los Angeles is favored
by 8 .5, and the over -under is 45 .5 in local
sports. Yesterday afternoon at Wrigley Field
in Chicago, the Padres beat the Cubs 3 -0 in
wild card game two. Morihan earned the win with
2 .1 innings, pitched, and one strikeout. Machado
hit a solo home run in the fifth, while Merrill's
sacrifice fly brought in the first run. The Friars
finished with seven hits and no errors, leaving
seven runners on base. This afternoon, it's do
or die in Chicago. Eudarvish is 5 -5, with a
5 .38 earned run average, faces Jameson Talon.

12 -08 at Wrigley Field with clear skies and
a comfortable 76 degrees expected. In top news,
many services ground to a halt as the federal
government shuts down. Much of the federal government
is now shut down after Republicans and Democrats
in the Senate failed to agree on a funding plan.
A Senate vote to reopen the government failed
on Wednesday, as many federal agencies ceased
operations. The Republican -controlled House
passed a bill to fund the government through
November 21st, but Senate Democrats refused to
support it. Critical services like Social Security
and Medicare will continue, but to laser expected.
I thought 750 ,000 federal employees may be furloughed
daily. President Trump hinted at possible mass
firings of federal workers. In business news,
for United States business schools, local challenges
could bring global solutions. Stanford University
holds onto the top spot among full -time master
of business administration programs in the United
States. Overall, shifts are underway globally
that could result in long -term fundamental changes.
Students again weigh career prospects as a top
-interest post degree. Consulting, technology,

diverse app building products. Entertainment

office once again with the official release party

little promotion beyond swift social media. The
