This morning it's looking clean 00:00:44.609 --> 00:00:48.810 with waves around 2 to 4 feet. Conditions will 00:00:48.810 --> 00:00:51.600 shift to fair by 8. and then become choppy as 00:00:51.600 --> 00:00:55.200 the wind picks up to sideshore at 7 miles per 00:00:55.200 --> 00:00:59.060 hour by 9. Expect the wind to shift onshore by 00:00:59.060 --> 00:01:02.500 11, holding steady at 11 miles per hour throughout 00:01:02.500 --> 00:01:06.900 the afternoon.

Saturday 00:01:45.790 --> 00:01:49.329 sees a drop in size to 3 to 5 feet, yet remains 00:01:49.329 --> 00:01:51.870 clean in the morning before choppy conditions 00:01:51.870 --> 00:01:55.870 develop by noon.

In local 00:03:35.949 --> 00:03:39.610 news, the Encinitas City Council is currently 00:03:39.610 --> 00:03:42.610 reviewing safety redesigns for the busy Santa 00:03:42.610 --> 00:03:45.530 Fe Drive corridor, which was completed in May. 00:03:46.629 --> 00:03:49.550 This area has a reputation for being dangerous 00:03:49.550 --> 00:03:53.370 for pedestrians, drivers, and cyclists, particularly 00:03:53.370 --> 00:03:57.469 in front of Sandagito Academy High School. Community 00:03:57.469 --> 00:04:00.210 members are divided, as some feel the road is 00:04:00.210 --> 00:04:03.060 too narrow. while others prefer the current setup 00:04:03.060 --> 00:04:07.240 to avoid more construction costs. Cyclist Olivia 00:04:07.240 --> 00:04:10.020 Wheeler expressed that she appreciates the safety 00:04:10.020 --> 00:04:12.740 of the existing bike lane and separated paths. 00:04:14.219 --> 00:04:16.959 State Senator Catherine Blakespear, who previously 00:04:16.959 --> 00:04:19.879 served as mayor, emphasized the importance of 00:04:19.879 --> 00:04:23.160 safety, noting that she allocated $3 million 00:04:23.160 --> 00:04:26.899 for these improvements. The council is considering 00:04:26.899 --> 00:04:29.660 three new design options that would widen the 00:04:29.660 --> 00:04:32.639 road and eliminate angled parking, with costs 00:04:32.639 --> 00:04:42.100 ranging from $2 million to $3 .6 million. Now 00:04:42.100 --> 00:04:46.160 on to sports. The initial college football playoff 00:04:46.160 --> 00:04:49.500 rankings for the 2025 season were released, with 00:04:49.500 --> 00:04:53.759 Ohio State, Indiana, Texas A &M, and Alabama 00:04:53.759 --> 00:04:58.180 occupying the top four spots. The selection committee 00:04:58.180 --> 00:05:01.399 emphasized a new record -strength metric to highlight 00:05:01.399 --> 00:05:04.920 competition quality, ranking Notre Dame at number 00:05:04.920 --> 00:05:09.220 10 in Miami at number 18. The highest -ranked 00:05:09.220 --> 00:05:12.019 team from outside power conferences is Memphis, 00:05:12.279 --> 00:05:16.439 which did not make the top 25. The quarterfinals 00:05:16.439 --> 00:05:19.699 are scheduled for December 31 and January 1. 00:05:19.959 --> 00:05:23.319 with a national title game on January 19th in 00:05:23.319 --> 00:05:28.939 Miami Gardens, Florida, in local sports. The 00:05:28.939 --> 00:05:31.839 Los Angeles Chargers made two trades on trade 00:05:31.839 --> 00:05:35.180 deadline day, but they did not match fan expectations. 00:05:36.319 --> 00:05:38.879 The team traded a future sixth -round pick for 00:05:38.879 --> 00:05:42.319 2022 first -round pick Trevor Penning, who adds 00:05:42.319 --> 00:05:45.879 depth to the offensive line despite his subpar 00:05:45.879 --> 00:05:49.459 performance. The Chargers also traded Josser 00:05:49.459 --> 00:05:52.959 Taylor for a 20 -28 seventh round pick, a move 00:05:52.959 --> 00:05:56.939 that will have no tangible impact. While fans 00:05:56.939 --> 00:05:59.459 hoped for a bigger splash, the Chargers lacked 00:05:59.459 --> 00:06:02.399 the cap space for a significant move, having 00:06:02.399 --> 00:06:06.779 the third least in the NFL. Ultimately, the smaller 00:06:06.779 --> 00:06:09.800 trades reflect a focus on financial flexibility 00:06:09.800 --> 00:06:16.040 and future planning. In top news, on November 00:06:16.040 --> 00:06:20.699 6th, 2025, United States Transportation Secretary 00:06:20.699 --> 00:06:24.699 Sean Duffy announced a 10 % cut in flights at 00:06:24.699 --> 00:06:28.300 40 major United States airports due to air traffic 00:06:28.300 --> 00:06:31.120 control safety concerns amid a government shutdown 00:06:31.120 --> 00:06:35.579 that reached a record 36 -day. The shutdown has 00:06:35.579 --> 00:06:38.639 resulted in staffing shortages, flight delays, 00:06:39.000 --> 00:06:42.060 and longer security wait times, impacting at 00:06:42.060 --> 00:06:46.709 least 3 .2 million travelers. Duffy indicated 00:06:46.709 --> 00:06:49.649 that cuts could be reversed if Democrats agree 00:06:49.649 --> 00:06:52.949 to reopen the government. Airlines are scrambling 00:06:52.949 --> 00:06:55.829 to adjust schedules, with significant reductions 00:06:55.829 --> 00:07:00.389 expected within 36 hours. The Federal Aviation 00:07:00.389 --> 00:07:04.370 Administration is about 3 ,500 air traffic controllers 00:07:04.370 --> 00:07:08.810 short of targeted staffing levels. In business 00:07:08.810 --> 00:07:12.750 news, there is a new way to get a loan, but it 00:07:12.750 --> 00:07:16.850 comes at a cost. creditors have a new obsession. 00:07:17.850 --> 00:07:19.810 When you are turned down for a loan due to a 00:07:19.810 --> 00:07:22.370 low credit score, the lender may reconsider if 00:07:22.370 --> 00:07:25.850 you allow them access to your bank account. Financial 00:07:25.850 --> 00:07:28.149 companies are racing to analyze your day -to 00:07:28.149 --> 00:07:31.050 -day transactions, hoping to fill in gaps left 00:07:31.050 --> 00:07:34.810 by traditional credit scores. While open banking 00:07:34.810 --> 00:07:37.629 is optional, major lenders are embracing this 00:07:37.629 --> 00:07:42.029 trend, raising concerns about privacy. Some lenders 00:07:42.029 --> 00:07:44.509 claim that this access can help expand credit 00:07:44.509 --> 00:07:47.670 opportunities for those with thin credit histories. 00:07:48.750 --> 00:07:51.370 However, it also invites potential surveillance 00:07:51.370 --> 00:07:55.310 into your financial life. In crypto movement, 00:07:56.089 --> 00:08:02.689 Bitcoin is up 1 % to about $103 ,000. Ethereum 00:08:02.689 --> 00:08:08.649 is up 2 % to just over $3 ,400. And XRP is up 00:08:08.649 --> 00:08:16.490 4%. to $2 .33.

The China Manned Space 00:09:20.240 --> 00:09:23.299 Agency is investigating the incident, stating 00:09:23.299 --> 00:09:26.620 the Shento -20 crewed spacecraft is suspected 00:09:26.620 --> 00:09:29.200 to have been struck by a small piece of orbital 00:09:29.200 --> 00:09:33.039 debris. The crew, who launched in April, was 00:09:33.039 --> 00:09:35.600 supposed to return on Thursday, but the delay 00:09:35.600 --> 00:09:38.759 is to ensure the health and safety of the astronauts. 00:09:40.100 --> 00:09:42.320 This incident highlights the growing issue of 00:09:42.320 --> 00:09:45.279 space junk, which poses significant risks to 00:09:45.279 --> 00:09:48.820 missions. Experts note that even tiny debris 00:09:48.820 --> 00:09:51.620 can cause catastrophic damage at high speeds. 00:09:55.240 --> 00:09:58.820 Entertainment news.

And 00:10:50.649 --> 00:10:53.509 today, our quote comes from the American author 00:10:53.509 --> 00:10:58.230 and motivational speaker, Zig Ziegler. And he 00:10:58.230 --> 00:11:02.169 said, Success means doing the best we can with 00:11:02.169 --> 00:11:05.809 what we have. Success is the doing, not the getting, 00:11:06.210 --> 00:11:09.830 and the trying, not the triumph. Success is a 00:11:09.830 --> 00:11:12.470 personal standard, reaching for the highest that 00:11:12.470 --> 00:11:17.230 is in us, becoming all that we can be.
