00:00:01.259 --> 00:00:04.139
Good morning, and a warm welcome to your show,

00:00:04.639 --> 00:00:09.179
Sunny Mornings in San Diego. I'm your host, Melissa,

00:00:09.519 --> 00:00:14.000
and it's Tuesday, October 14th. You'll be interested

00:00:14.000 --> 00:00:20.820
to know. 78 years ago, today in 1947, Captain

00:00:20.820 --> 00:00:24.160
Chuck Eager, flying a Bellec X -1 rocket plane

00:00:24.160 --> 00:00:27.679
over Muroc Dry Lake, California, became the first

00:00:27.679 --> 00:00:30.690
person to break the sound barrier. a triumphant

00:00:30.690 --> 00:00:34.350
milestone in human aviation achievement. This

00:00:34.350 --> 00:00:37.130
inspiring moment, celebrated as a breakthrough

00:00:37.130 --> 00:00:40.710
in aeronautical progress, continues to symbolize

00:00:40.710 --> 00:00:44.530
human ingenuity, courage, and the spirit of exploration.

00:00:46.149 --> 00:00:50.770
So now you know. And now, it's time for the Surf

00:00:50.770 --> 00:00:57.710

feet. The wind is sideshore at 16 miles per hour,

00:01:05.510 --> 00:01:08.269
picking up through the morning. Expect the swell

00:01:08.269 --> 00:01:11.590
to build slightly to 3 plus feet by noon, with

00:01:11.590 --> 00:01:15.150
the wind shifting onshore later in the day. Current

00:01:15.150 --> 00:01:17.629

afternoon. Best time to ride is at 4 p .m. with

00:01:22.170 --> 00:01:25.370
a 5 -foot high tide when the southwest swell

00:01:25.560 --> 00:01:28.980

10 .45. The nearshore buoy at Mission Day West

00:01:45.200 --> 00:01:50.659
reads 69 degrees for the water temperature. Conditions

00:01:50.659 --> 00:01:53.180
remain fair with waves at two to three feet.

00:01:53.359 --> 00:01:56.840
peaking in the morning on Wednesday. Thursday

maintaining clean conditions throughout the day.

00:02:03.700 --> 00:02:06.819
By Friday, surf remains consistent at 2 to 3

00:02:06.819 --> 00:02:09.620
feet, but choppy conditions develop as winds

00:02:09.620 --> 00:02:14.759
pick up, especially in the afternoon. This morning,

00:02:14.800 --> 00:02:17.419
there's a chance of rain showers, and it feels

00:02:17.419 --> 00:02:22.719
like 62 degrees with 15 mile per hour wind. The

00:02:22.719 --> 00:02:25.979
sunset will take place at 617, and it will rise

00:02:25.979 --> 00:02:30.000
again tomorrow at 655. It looks like we're in

00:02:30.000 --> 00:02:33.139

Expect a chance of rain showers before 5 a .m.

00:02:46.099 --> 00:02:50.340
with partly cloudy skies, a low around 56, and

00:02:50.340 --> 00:02:55.759
light winds. Looking ahead in the weather. Wednesday

00:02:55.759 --> 00:02:59.099
will be sunny with a high near 68 and a northwest

00:02:59.099 --> 00:03:02.400
breeze of 5 to 10 miles per hour, gusting to

00:03:02.400 --> 00:03:06.159
20. Wednesday night will be mostly clear with

00:03:06.159 --> 00:03:10.580
a low near 55. Thursday and Friday stay sunny

00:03:10.580 --> 00:03:14.120
with highs rising to around 71 on Thursday and

00:03:14.120 --> 00:03:18.000
near 74 on Friday. Then Saturday will be mostly

00:03:18.000 --> 00:03:21.819
sunny with highs near 76. and mostly cloudy nights

00:03:21.819 --> 00:03:25.919
in the upper 50s to around 60. Bonjour, food

00:03:25.919 --> 00:03:29.280

to tell them. Sunny mornings send you. In local

00:04:03.469 --> 00:04:07.770
news, San Diego began rolling out new high -tech

00:04:07.770 --> 00:04:11.629
trash bins Monday. City Council President Joe

00:04:11.629 --> 00:04:15.020
LaCava noted that the passing of Measure B which

00:04:15.020 --> 00:04:18.000
charges San Diegans for trash collection, made

00:04:18.000 --> 00:04:21.699
the new bins possible. La Cava emphasized that

00:04:21.699 --> 00:04:24.740
this is the first on -the -ground step to modernize

00:04:24.740 --> 00:04:29.019
collection and improve city services. Three -quarters

00:04:29.019 --> 00:04:31.819
of the current trash cans are over 20 years old,

00:04:32.079 --> 00:04:34.459
and the new bins feature advanced technology.

00:04:36.199 --> 00:04:39.500
225 ,000 San Diego households are eligible for

00:04:39.500 --> 00:04:42.939
the new bins. Residents can track their bins'

00:04:43.100 --> 00:04:47.480
delivery schedule at sandiego .gov slash trash.

00:04:48.120 --> 00:04:50.779
Deliveries will coincide with regular trash collection

00:04:50.779 --> 00:04:53.639
days, and old bins will be recycled into the

00:04:53.639 --> 00:05:03.079
new ones. Now on to sports. The Dodgers' ace,

00:05:03.199 --> 00:05:05.920
Blake Snell, overwhelmed the Milwaukee Brewers

00:05:05.920 --> 00:05:08.509
for eight innings. and first baseman Freddie

00:05:08.509 --> 00:05:11.310
Freeman added another postseason homer to his

00:05:11.310 --> 00:05:14.170
Hall of Fame resume, as the Dodgers survived

00:05:14.170 --> 00:05:17.550
a shaky ninth inning to capture a 2 -1 victory

00:05:17.550 --> 00:05:19.930
in Game 1 of the National League Championship

00:05:19.930 --> 00:05:25.170
Series on Monday at American Family Field. Snell

00:05:25.170 --> 00:05:28.050
faced the minimum while allowing one hit and

00:05:28.050 --> 00:05:32.110
striking out a postseason career -high 10 batters.

00:05:32.430 --> 00:05:35.069
The Brewers executed an impressive double play

00:05:35.069 --> 00:05:37.839
in the fourth inning, showcasing their defensive

00:05:37.839 --> 00:05:42.199
capabilities. Manager Pat Murphy downplayed recent

00:05:42.199 --> 00:05:45.600
struggles of reliever Aaron Ashby, emphasizing

00:05:45.600 --> 00:05:49.579
his solid regular season performance. This series

00:05:49.579 --> 00:05:52.259
will test Milwaukee's ability to create pressure

00:05:52.259 --> 00:05:56.019
against a dominant Dodgers rotation. And last

00:05:56.019 --> 00:05:59.579
night on Monday Night Football, the Bills lost

00:05:59.579 --> 00:06:04.000
to the Falcons in Atlanta, 24 to 14. Josh Allen

00:06:04.000 --> 00:06:09.800
was 15 for 26, with 180 passing yards, two passing

00:06:09.800 --> 00:06:14.180
touchdowns, and two interceptions. Michael Pinnix

00:06:14.180 --> 00:06:19.560
Jr. was 20 for 32, with 250 passing yards, one

00:06:19.560 --> 00:06:23.639
passing touchdown, and no interceptions. And

00:06:23.639 --> 00:06:26.319
in game two, the Bears beat the Commanders in

00:06:26.319 --> 00:06:32.040
Washington, 25 to 24. Caleb Williams was 17 for

00:06:32.040 --> 00:06:37.290
29. with 252 passing yards, one passing touchdown,

00:06:37.730 --> 00:06:40.970
one rushing touchdown, and no interceptions.

00:06:42.269 --> 00:06:47.449
Jaden Daniels was 19 for 26, with 211 passing

00:06:47.449 --> 00:06:51.470
yards, three passing touchdowns, and one interception.

00:06:53.189 --> 00:06:57.649
In local sports, Mike Schilt informed the Padres

00:06:57.649 --> 00:07:00.660
organization Saturday that he is retiring as

00:07:00.660 --> 00:07:03.500
the club's manager with two years remaining on

00:07:03.500 --> 00:07:06.279
his contract, according to multiple sources,

00:07:06.620 --> 00:07:11.540
including ESPN. The 57 -year -old Schilt is retiring

00:07:11.540 --> 00:07:14.379
on his own accord, stating that the sport has

00:07:14.379 --> 00:07:17.000
taken a toll on him mentally and physically.

00:07:18.740 --> 00:07:21.839
Schilt has been the Padres' manager since 2024,

00:07:22.360 --> 00:07:25.420
leading San Diego to consecutive 90 -win seasons

00:07:25.420 --> 00:07:29.519
and back -to -back playoff appearances. President

00:07:29.519 --> 00:07:32.500
of Facefall Operations and General Manager A

00:07:32.500 --> 00:07:35.639
.G. Preller congratulated Schilt, thanking him

00:07:35.639 --> 00:07:38.240
for his significant contributions to the Padres

00:07:38.240 --> 00:07:41.259
and the San Diego community over the last four

00:07:41.259 --> 00:07:44.639
years. The search for a new manager will begin

00:07:44.639 --> 00:07:47.180
immediately with the goal of winning a World

00:07:47.180 --> 00:07:54.000
Series Championship in 2026. In top news, the

00:07:54.000 --> 00:07:56.689
world's coral reefs are dying. and will continue

00:07:56.689 --> 00:07:59.529
to unless global temperatures drop significantly.

00:08:00.689 --> 00:08:02.850
Our report published today says that the Earth

00:08:02.850 --> 00:08:06.529
has passed its first climate tipping point. The

00:08:06.529 --> 00:08:09.310
University of Exeter found that warm water coral

00:08:09.310 --> 00:08:11.829
reefs are passing their tipping point due to

00:08:11.829 --> 00:08:15.689
rising ocean temperatures, acidification, overfishing

00:08:15.689 --> 00:08:19.490
and pollution. Din Lenton, founding director

00:08:19.490 --> 00:08:22.750
at the Global Systems Institute, stated, we are

00:08:22.750 --> 00:08:26.699
in a new climate reality. He warned that crossing

00:08:26.699 --> 00:08:30.100
the 1 .5 degrees Celsius threshold within the

00:08:30.100 --> 00:08:33.179
next five years could lead to more extreme weather

00:08:33.179 --> 00:08:37.259
and food production strains. Scientists have

00:08:37.259 --> 00:08:40.720
identified as many as 25 major tipping points,

00:08:41.000 --> 00:08:43.840
including the transformation of the Amazon rainforest

00:08:43.840 --> 00:08:47.720
and polar ice melting. The authors of the report

00:08:47.720 --> 00:08:50.559
emphasize the urgent need for action to avoid

00:08:50.559 --> 00:08:55.919
this fate. In business news, Derek Tharp, an

00:08:55.919 --> 00:08:58.460
associate professor of finance at the University

00:08:58.460 --> 00:09:01.320
of Southern Maine, argues that delaying Social

00:09:01.320 --> 00:09:04.399
Security benefits may not make sense for everyone.

00:09:05.580 --> 00:09:08.000
While economists recommend waiting until age

00:09:08.000 --> 00:09:12.139
70 for maximum benefits, only 10 % of Americans

00:09:12.139 --> 00:09:16.279
actually do so. Many retirees claim benefits

00:09:16.279 --> 00:09:20.460
at age 62, or before their full retirement age.

00:09:21.410 --> 00:09:24.649
Delaying can risk lost income if one dies earlier

00:09:24.649 --> 00:09:27.669
than expected, or if market downturns occur.

00:09:28.990 --> 00:09:31.330
Additionally, retirees may spend less from their

00:09:31.330 --> 00:09:34.309
portfolios due to behavioral tendencies, which

00:09:34.309 --> 00:09:37.129
can lead to underspending and reduced enjoyment.

00:09:38.149 --> 00:09:40.830
Considering these factors, claiming social security

00:09:40.830 --> 00:09:45.429
earlier may be a viable strategy. In crypto movement,

00:09:46.169 --> 00:09:53.659
Bitcoin is down 1%. to about $113 ,000. Ethereum

00:09:53.659 --> 00:10:00.100
is unchanged at about $4 ,100. And XRP is unchanged

00:10:00.100 --> 00:10:08.379
at $2 .55. Moving on to a more local vibe. In

00:10:08.379 --> 00:10:11.039
our community spotlight on health and wellness,

00:10:11.639 --> 00:10:14.080
we are working with a national Pilates studio

00:10:14.080 --> 00:10:17.299
to bring you some free classes. So listen up.

00:10:18.059 --> 00:10:21.399
Check out Club Pilates with several locations

00:10:21.399 --> 00:10:25.460
in the San Diego area. Pilates presents a comprehensive

wellness approach cultivating strength, reducing

00:10:28.799 --> 00:10:33.139
tension, and elevating mental well -being. Scientific

00:10:33.139 --> 00:10:37.259
research affirms its benefits. So now you can

00:10:37.259 --> 00:10:40.779
check out Club Pilates for a free class with

00:10:40.779 --> 00:10:44.940
locations in Encinitas, Solana Beach, Oceanside,

00:10:45.320 --> 00:10:49.230
La Jolla, and more. Just be sure to tell them

00:10:49.230 --> 00:10:53.330
Sunny Morning sent you by. And now back to the

00:10:53.330 --> 00:10:59.009
show. Let's talk science. SpaceX's satellites

00:10:59.009 --> 00:11:03.129
are falling from the sky every single day. If

00:11:03.129 --> 00:11:05.889
Starlink continues scaling up operations, there

00:11:05.889 --> 00:11:08.309
could be as many as five of these satellites

00:11:08.309 --> 00:11:12.549
raining down on us daily. Starlink satellites

00:11:12.549 --> 00:11:15.549
in low Earth orbit are de -orbiting and falling

00:11:15.549 --> 00:11:19.889
to Earth at the rate of one to two per day. Debris

00:11:19.889 --> 00:11:22.830
from rockets and satellites contains metal particles

00:11:22.830 --> 00:11:26.750
that could deplete the ozone layer. Smithsonian

00:11:26.750 --> 00:11:29.789
astrophysicist Jonathan McDowell tracks everything

00:11:29.789 --> 00:11:33.470
that goes up and comes down. These satellites

00:11:33.470 --> 00:11:36.429
only have a lifespan of five to seven years,

00:11:36.690 --> 00:11:39.190
which is why McDowell sees a future of falling

00:11:39.190 --> 00:11:43.230
Starlink spacecraft. NOAA researchers found an

00:11:43.230 --> 00:11:45.870
unexpected density of metal particles in the

00:11:45.870 --> 00:11:48.750
stratosphere, and we do not yet know how safe

00:11:48.750 --> 00:11:56.289
these are. Entertainment news. Rajesh Mappaskar,

00:11:56.529 --> 00:11:59.149
the Indian national film award -winning director

00:11:59.149 --> 00:12:02.850
behind Ventilator and Ferrari Ki Sawari, has

00:12:02.850 --> 00:12:06.409
been chosen to direct Chiranjeeve Hanuman. The

00:12:06.409 --> 00:12:09.190
Eternal, which is billed as one of India's first

00:12:09.190 --> 00:12:12.750
theatrical films, created using generative artificial

00:12:12.750 --> 00:12:16.830
intelligence technology. The Hindi language project

00:12:16.830 --> 00:12:20.090
chronicles the tale of Hindu god Lord Hanuman

00:12:20.090 --> 00:12:24.250
and is being produced by Vikram Malhotra's Abhandantiya

00:12:24.250 --> 00:12:27.070
Entertainment and Collective Media Network's

00:12:27.070 --> 00:12:30.990
Historyverse. Slated for worldwide release on

00:12:54.340 --> 00:12:58.179
folks, it's time for the quote of the day. And

00:12:58.179 --> 00:13:01.240
today, our quote comes from the American aviator

00:13:01.240 --> 00:13:05.139
and author, Anne -Marie Lindbergh. And she said,

00:13:07.690 --> 00:13:10.590
To anywhere that is, you must begin by knowing

00:13:10.590 --> 00:13:14.809
that you have already arrived. And that's a wrap

00:13:14.809 --> 00:13:18.049
