Good morning and a warm welcome to your show,

00:00:04.719 --> 00:00:09.099
Sunny Mornings in San Diego. I'm your host, Melissa,

00:00:09.179 --> 00:00:13.320
and it's Monday, February 2nd. You'll be interested

00:00:13.320 --> 00:00:17.679
to know that today is Groundhog Day. Each year,

00:00:17.719 --> 00:00:20.239
communities gather to cheer when a groundhog

00:00:20.239 --> 00:00:23.359
emerges from its burrow to predict an early spring

00:00:23.359 --> 00:00:26.920
or six more weeks of winter, blending folk wisdom

00:00:26.920 --> 00:00:30.750
with festive local traditions. Families and friends

00:00:30.750 --> 00:00:33.890
share warm laughter, community breakfasts, and

00:00:33.890 --> 00:00:36.909
hopeful wishes for spring, making it a cozy,

00:00:37.409 --> 00:00:41.490
uplifting celebration of nature's rhythms. So

00:00:41.490 --> 00:00:45.909
now you know. And now, it's time for the Surf

00:00:45.909 --> 00:00:52.170
Report. Monday at Tourmaline. This morning it's

00:00:52.170 --> 00:00:54.689
looking clean with waves around four to seven

00:00:54.689 --> 00:00:57.590
feet. Conditions stay consistent through the

00:00:57.590 --> 00:01:00.609
morning, with light offshore winds at 4 miles

00:01:00.609 --> 00:01:04.150
per hour. By late morning, the wind shifts to

00:01:04.150 --> 00:01:07.829
onshore at 4 miles per hour, bringing some texture

00:01:07.829 --> 00:01:11.250
to the surface. Expect fair conditions as the

00:01:11.250 --> 00:01:14.810
day progresses, with the tide pushing in. Best

00:01:14.810 --> 00:01:18.469
time to ride is at 8 a .m., with a 6 -foot incoming

00:01:18.469 --> 00:01:22.430
high tide, when the west swell is 3 feet at 17

00:01:22.430 --> 00:01:25.579
seconds. and the offshore wind is three mile

00:01:25.579 --> 00:01:28.799
per hour. The first high tide on Monday will

00:01:28.799 --> 00:01:32.739
be six and a half feet just before 9 a .m., followed

00:01:32.739 --> 00:01:36.659
by a minus one and a half foot low tide at 345.

00:01:37.340 --> 00:01:40.799
The nearshore buoy at Mission Bay West reads

00:01:40.799 --> 00:01:45.319
64 degrees for the water temperature. Tuesday

00:01:45.319 --> 00:01:48.239
brings clean conditions with waves ranging from

00:01:48.239 --> 00:01:51.340
five to seven feet in light winds, ideal for

00:01:51.340 --> 00:01:54.709
catching some good rides. Wednesday sees a slight

00:01:54.709 --> 00:01:57.750
decrease in size, with queen sets around 3 to

00:01:57.750 --> 00:02:00.950
4 feet, maintaining favorable conditions early

00:02:00.950 --> 00:02:05.129
on. Thursday builds back to 3 to 5 feet, but

00:02:05.129 --> 00:02:07.909
becomes choppy, especially in the afternoon,

00:02:08.389 --> 00:02:12.909
making it a more challenging day overall. This

00:02:12.909 --> 00:02:16.009
morning, there's patchy fog, and it feels like

00:02:16.009 --> 00:02:20.569
57 degrees, with no wind. The sunset will take

00:02:20.569 --> 00:02:23.840
place at 523. and it will rise again tomorrow

00:02:23.840 --> 00:02:27.960
at 644. It looks like we're in for some patchy

00:02:27.960 --> 00:02:30.979
fog early today, but it should clear up for mostly

00:02:30.979 --> 00:02:34.580
sunny skies with a high near 70 and a light breeze.

00:02:35.800 --> 00:02:39.740
Tonight, expect mostly cloudy skies with a low

00:03:13.629 --> 00:03:16.530

Sunny mornings send you. In local news, the city

00:03:51.569 --> 00:03:54.169
of Carlsbad and the Carlsbad Municipal Water

00:03:54.169 --> 00:03:56.830
District declared a state of local emergency

00:03:56.830 --> 00:04:00.270
on Saturday morning due to a large sinkhole that

00:04:00.270 --> 00:04:03.009
developed from a water main break at the intersection

00:04:03.009 --> 00:04:06.569
of Carlsbad Village Drive and El Camino Real.

00:04:07.120 --> 00:04:10.240
This local emergency allows for immediate road

00:04:10.240 --> 00:04:12.879
repairs, as reported in a press release from

00:04:12.879 --> 00:04:16.160
the City of Carlsbad. The water main break was

00:04:16.160 --> 00:04:19.519
reported at 4 a .m. on Saturday, affecting six

00:04:19.519 --> 00:04:22.860
lanes of El Camino Real and four lanes of Carlsbad

00:04:22.860 --> 00:04:26.480
Village Drive. Repairs are expected to take approximately

00:04:26.480 --> 00:04:29.800
36 hours, and travelers are advised to avoid

00:04:29.800 --> 00:04:32.819
the area and use alternate routes until further

00:04:32.819 --> 00:04:42.439
notice. Now on to sports. The Seattle Seahawks

00:04:42.439 --> 00:04:45.220
are expected to be put up for sale after Super

00:04:45.220 --> 00:04:48.680
Bowl 60. Two league sources confirmed this weekend.

00:04:49.540 --> 00:04:51.899
The Seahawks will face the New England Patriots

00:04:51.899 --> 00:04:54.920
in the Super Bowl on February 8 in Santa Clara,

00:04:54.920 --> 00:04:58.079
California, seeking their second Lombardi Trophy

00:04:58.079 --> 00:05:01.839
in franchise history. Jodie Allen became the

00:05:01.839 --> 00:05:04.980
controlling owner in 2018 after her brother,

00:05:05.240 --> 00:05:08.970
Paul Allen, passed away. The estate stated that

00:05:08.970 --> 00:05:11.870
the team is not for sale, but noted that plans

00:05:11.870 --> 00:05:15.329
will change eventually. The Seahawks are valued

00:05:15.329 --> 00:05:20.290
at $6 .6 billion, according to Sportico. The

00:05:20.290 --> 00:05:22.569
team's sale, however, may not be a distraction

00:05:22.569 --> 00:05:27.110
as they prepare for the big game. In local sports,

00:05:28.490 --> 00:05:31.370
Joel Dahman made a strong impression at the Farmer's

00:05:31.370 --> 00:05:34.769
Insurance Open, finishing in the top 10 and securing

00:05:34.769 --> 00:05:38.329
a spot in the upcoming tour event. After expressing

00:05:38.329 --> 00:05:41.170
concerns about his uncertain schedule, Dahman

00:05:41.170 --> 00:05:43.709
responded with a solid performance at Torrey

00:05:43.709 --> 00:05:47.449
Pines, ending up tied for seventh place. His

00:05:47.449 --> 00:05:50.529
impressive rounds included a 9 under 63 on the

00:05:50.529 --> 00:05:53.350
North Course, showcasing his skill with three

00:05:53.350 --> 00:05:56.689
Eagles. Dahman will next compete at the Waste

00:05:56.689 --> 00:05:59.529
Management Phoenix Open on a sponsor exemption,

00:05:59.930 --> 00:06:02.810
aiming to improve his standing ahead of the Cognizant

00:06:02.810 --> 00:06:08.899
Classic later this month. In top news, Blue Origin

00:06:08.899 --> 00:06:12.740
has paused its New Shepard program for two years,

00:06:13.220 --> 00:06:16.220
likely signaling a permanent end to its suborbital

00:06:16.220 --> 00:06:20.819
space tourism initiative. Since April 2015, the

00:06:20.819 --> 00:06:23.819
small rocket and capsule have completed 38 launches,

00:06:24.259 --> 00:06:28.040
with 36 successful landings. The program flew

00:06:28.040 --> 00:06:32.079
98 people to space and launched over 200 scientific

00:06:32.079 --> 00:06:36.089
payloads. Chief Executive Dave Limp stated that

00:06:36.089 --> 00:06:38.910
the company will redirect resources toward lunar

00:06:38.910 --> 00:06:41.930
capabilities, enhancing its role in the nation's

00:06:41.930 --> 00:06:44.970
goal of returning to the moon. Ending New Shepard

00:06:44.970 --> 00:06:47.670
is seen as a positive move for the United States

00:06:47.670 --> 00:06:50.769
space industry, allowing Blue Origin to focus

00:06:50.769 --> 00:06:55.850
on New Glenn and the lunar lander program. In

00:06:55.850 --> 00:06:59.810
business news, this week features a busy earnings

00:06:59.810 --> 00:07:02.720
landscape. with companies like Advanced Micro

00:07:02.720 --> 00:07:06.199
Devices, Merck, and Walt Disney reporting results.

00:07:07.000 --> 00:07:09.500
The Bureau of Labor Statistics will release the

00:07:09.500 --> 00:07:12.399
jobs report on Friday, provided the government

00:07:12.399 --> 00:07:15.939
remains open. Equities faced volatility last

00:07:15.939 --> 00:07:19.720
week, with the S &P 500 index ending slightly

00:07:19.720 --> 00:07:23.920
in the green. This week, more than 115 companies

00:07:23.920 --> 00:07:27.160
are set to report earnings, starting with Palantir

00:07:27.160 --> 00:07:31.230
Technologies on Monday. Economists expect a 70

00:07:31.230 --> 00:07:34.230
,000 increase in non -farm payrolls, while the

00:07:34.230 --> 00:07:36.490
unemployment rate is predicted to hold steady

00:07:36.490 --> 00:07:42.050
at 4 .4%. In crypto movement, Bitcoin is down

00:07:42.050 --> 00:07:47.730
7 % over the weekend, to about $77 ,000. Ethereum

00:08:01.560 --> 00:08:04.360
In our community spotlight on health and wellness,

00:08:04.980 --> 00:08:07.399

La Jolla and more. Just be sure to tell them

00:08:42.620 --> 00:08:46.679
Sunny Morning sent you by. And now back to the

00:08:46.679 --> 00:08:52.399
show. Let's talk tech. Elon Musk announced that

00:08:52.399 --> 00:08:56.399
Tesla's Model S and Model X the company's highest

00:08:56.399 --> 00:08:59.919
-priced cars will be discontinued. While Tesla

00:08:59.919 --> 00:09:03.059
does not specify sales figures, earnings indicate

00:09:03.059 --> 00:09:06.759
that demand has been declining for years. Musk

00:09:06.759 --> 00:09:09.820
described his decision as an honorable discharge

00:09:09.820 --> 00:09:12.100
for the vehicles, which will cease production

00:09:12.100 --> 00:09:18.399
next quarter. In 2025, Tesla sold 50 ,850 units

00:09:18.399 --> 00:09:21.360
in the Other Models category, accounting for

00:09:21.360 --> 00:09:25.440
just over 3 % of total sales. As Tesla shifts

00:09:25.440 --> 00:09:28.899
focus to robotics and autonomy, analysts remain

00:09:28.899 --> 00:09:32.159
skeptical about immediate profits from this transition.

00:09:43.799 --> 00:09:47.759
The platform, which has a global base of 325

00:09:47.759 --> 00:09:50.799
million subscribers, continues to expand its

00:09:50.799 --> 00:09:56.240
library, adding over 750 series in 2025 alone.

00:09:57.200 --> 00:09:59.700
Warner Brothers Discovery is collaborating with

00:09:59.700 --> 00:10:03.259
Netflix, sharing popular shows like Animal Kingdom

00:10:03.259 --> 00:10:06.700
and The West Wing before their merger is finalized.

00:10:07.679 --> 00:10:10.259
This strategy allows Netflix to keep viewers

00:10:10.259 --> 00:10:13.320
engaged, enhancing its competitive edge. with

00:10:13.320 --> 00:10:17.340
nearly 70 % of its content being licensed material.

00:10:18.639 --> 00:10:21.379
Experts suggest that Netflix has won the streaming

00:10:21.379 --> 00:10:24.600
wars, signaling a shift in how companies approach

00:10:24.600 --> 00:10:29.059
licensing. Well, all righty, folks. It's time

00:10:29.059 --> 00:10:32.980
for the quote of the day. And today, our quote

00:10:32.980 --> 00:10:35.639
comes from the American author and motivational

00:10:35.639 --> 00:10:40.090
speaker, Dennis Waitley. And he said... Expect

00:10:40.090 --> 00:10:42.929
the best, plan for the worst, and prepare to

00:10:42.929 --> 00:10:47.250
be surprised. And that's a wrap for this morning.
