Wednesday offers clean conditions 00:01:46.140 --> 00:01:50.040 with waves around 1 to 2 feet, ideal for beginners. 00:01:50.850 --> 00:01:54.090 Thursday sees a swell increase to 3 to 5 feet, 00:01:54.409 --> 00:01:57.090 but choppy conditions prevail due to stronger 00:01:57.090 --> 00:02:01.090 northwest winds. Friday holds similar size at 00:02:01.090 --> 00:02:04.049 3 to 4 plus feet, with air conditions early, 00:02:04.310 --> 00:02:07.230 though choppy later as winds shift to the south. 00:02:09.389 --> 00:02:12.509 This morning, it's cloudy and it feels like 56 00:02:12.509 --> 00:02:17.090 degrees, with 5 mile per hour wind.

In local 00:03:45.719 --> 00:03:49.599 news, after a four -month closure due to a construction 00:03:49.599 --> 00:03:53.020 project, Torrey Pines State Natural Reserve reopened 00:03:53.020 --> 00:03:56.340 to the public this Sunday. The reserve had closed 00:03:56.340 --> 00:03:59.039 in November so crews could make several upgrades, 00:03:59.580 --> 00:04:02.539 including new parking stalls, paved paths, and 00:04:02.539 --> 00:04:06.039 other amenities. While the reserve is now open, 00:04:06.219 --> 00:04:08.719 A second phase of construction will begin in 00:04:08.719 --> 00:04:11.860 either August or September, according to California 00:04:11.860 --> 00:04:15.400 State Parks. In the meantime, visitors can enjoy 00:04:15.400 --> 00:04:18.699 the scenic ocean views and Black Rock Beach through 00:04:18.699 --> 00:04:21.740 several hikes across the reserve, located a short 00:04:21.740 --> 00:04:26.000 drive northwest of UC San Diego. With the summer 00:04:26.000 --> 00:04:28.420 -like weather in San Diego, are you planning 00:04:28.420 --> 00:04:36.579 on visiting the reserve soon? Now on to sports. 00:04:37.959 --> 00:04:41.839 The 2026 NFL Combine wrapped up on Sunday from 00:04:41.839 --> 00:04:44.660 Indianapolis, marking the official transition 00:04:44.660 --> 00:04:48.379 of college football players to the NFL. While 00:04:48.379 --> 00:04:51.060 attention focused on testing numbers impacting 00:04:51.060 --> 00:04:54.180 the NFL draft in Pittsburgh, there were notable 00:04:54.180 --> 00:04:56.560 insights from a college football perspective. 00:04:57.639 --> 00:05:00.259 Several underperforming teams cannot blame a 00:05:00.259 --> 00:05:03.470 lack of talent. as players like Penn State defensive 00:05:03.470 --> 00:05:06.829 tackle Zayn Durant showcased impressive skills. 00:05:08.230 --> 00:05:10.490 Florida's Caleb Banks emerged as a potential 00:05:10.490 --> 00:05:13.449 first -round pick, further indicating that coaching 00:05:13.449 --> 00:05:16.509 changes, rather than player performance, may 00:05:16.509 --> 00:05:20.089 explain underachievement. Overall, the combine 00:05:20.089 --> 00:05:22.810 highlighted a growing talent dispersal across 00:05:22.810 --> 00:05:27.050 college football. In local sports, the World 00:05:27.050 --> 00:05:29.930 Baseball Classic kicks off Wednesday, featuring 00:05:29.930 --> 00:05:32.910 seven Padres players who left for their respective 00:05:32.910 --> 00:05:36.990 teams over the weekend. Manny Machado, Fernando 00:05:36.990 --> 00:05:40.410 Tatis Jr., and Wandy Peralta are with the Dominican 00:05:40.410 --> 00:05:44.050 Republic, while Xander Bogarts joins the Netherlands 00:05:44.050 --> 00:05:48.209 in Florida. Mason Miller is set to play for Team 00:05:48.209 --> 00:05:51.790 USA in Arizona, and several minor league Padres 00:05:51.790 --> 00:05:55.649 players are also participating. The first official 00:05:55.649 --> 00:05:59.060 game will be between Chinese Taipei, and Australia 00:05:59.060 --> 00:06:03.379 in Tokyo. The Padres will face Team Great Britain 00:06:03.379 --> 00:06:10.519 in an exhibition at noon. In top news, HBO Max 00:06:10.519 --> 00:06:13.279 and Paramount Plus will become one streaming 00:06:13.279 --> 00:06:16.560 service. Paramount states the streamers will 00:06:16.560 --> 00:06:21.639 merge, while HBO will remain independent. Paramount 00:06:21.639 --> 00:06:24.980 CDO David Ellison indicated that combining the 00:06:24.980 --> 00:06:27.639 services may lead to better deals for viewers. 00:06:28.110 --> 00:06:30.870 He mentioned, we plan to put the two services 00:06:30.870 --> 00:06:34.529 together, giving us over 200 million direct -to 00:06:34.529 --> 00:06:38.110 -consumer subscribers. The average United States 00:06:38.110 --> 00:06:40.910 household subscribes to four streaming services, 00:06:41.290 --> 00:06:45.850 paying an average of $69 per month. Ellison emphasized 00:06:45.850 --> 00:06:49.970 that HBO should stay HBO, preserving its strong 00:06:49.970 --> 00:06:53.269 brand. The combined company is expected to have 00:06:53.269 --> 00:06:58.389 a staggering $79 billion in debt. In business 00:06:58.389 --> 00:07:02.750 news, the economy looks great on paper, but this 00:07:02.750 --> 00:07:06.889 split in consumer mood could spell trouble. Recession 00:07:06.889 --> 00:07:09.649 is more likely when consumers feel gloomy about 00:07:09.649 --> 00:07:13.670 the economy and their own finances. Recent improvements 00:07:13.670 --> 00:07:16.769 in American consumer sentiment are not as positive 00:07:16.769 --> 00:07:20.089 as they seem. The Conference Board's Consumer 00:07:20.089 --> 00:07:23.689 Confidence Index increased 2 .2 points in February 00:07:23.689 --> 00:07:28.189 to 91 .2. The University of Michigan's index 00:07:28.189 --> 00:07:33.310 of consumer sentiment rose to 56 .6. A widening 00:07:33.310 --> 00:07:35.790 spread between these indicators often signals 00:07:35.790 --> 00:07:39.430 an impending recession. Recent improvements in 00:07:39.430 --> 00:07:42.410 sentiment readings are not universally positive. 00:07:43.410 --> 00:07:48.430 In crypto movement, Bitcoin is up 2 .5 % to about 00:07:48.430 --> 00:07:55.509 $68 ,000. Ethereum is up 2 % to $2 ,000. And 00:07:55.509 --> 00:08:02.910 XRP is up 1 % to $1 .38. Moving on to a more 00:08:02.910 --> 00:08:07.470 local vibe. In our community spotlight on health 00:08:07.470 --> 00:08:10.089 and wellness, we are working with a national 00:08:10.089 --> 00:08:12.990 Pilates studio to bring you some free classes, 00:08:13.350 --> 00:08:17.850 so listen up.

And now back to the show. Let's talk 00:08:53.490 --> 00:08:57.269 tech. Apple might use Google servers to store 00:08:57.269 --> 00:09:01.370 data for its upgraded AI Siri. Apple may be leaning 00:09:01.370 --> 00:09:04.549 more on Google as it tries to catch up in artificial 00:09:04.549 --> 00:09:08.490 intelligence. Apple has asked Google to explore 00:09:08.490 --> 00:09:11.350 setting up servers for a new version of Siri 00:09:11.350 --> 00:09:14.730 that is powered by Gemini and meets Apple's privacy 00:09:14.730 --> 00:09:18.159 requirements. Apple announced in January that 00:09:18.159 --> 00:09:21.480 Google's Gemini AI models would help power the 00:09:21.480 --> 00:09:25.200 upgraded Siri, which was delayed last year. The 00:09:25.200 --> 00:09:28.200 original partnership stated that the next generation 00:09:28.200 --> 00:09:31.500 of Apple Foundation models will be based on Google's 00:09:31.500 --> 00:09:35.360 Gemini models and cloud technology. While this 00:09:35.360 --> 00:09:37.679 noted that Apple Intelligence would continue 00:09:37.679 --> 00:09:40.940 to run on Apple devices and private cloud compute, 00:09:41.320 --> 00:09:43.980 it did not specify if the new Siri would run 00:09:43.980 --> 00:09:49.769 on Google's cloud. and in entertainment news. 00:09:50.929 --> 00:09:53.230 The Justice Department's endeavor to break up 00:09:53.230 --> 00:09:56.669 Live Nation, Ticketmaster's parent company, has 00:09:56.669 --> 00:09:59.750 officially made its way to the courtroom. The 00:09:59.750 --> 00:10:02.710 antitrust case began with jury selection on March 00:10:02.710 --> 00:10:06.710 2nd in federal court in New York. Opening statements 00:10:06.710 --> 00:10:09.309 are scheduled to start Tuesday, with the trial 00:10:09.309 --> 00:10:13.529 expected to last six weeks. The lawsuit filed 00:10:13.529 --> 00:10:17.830 in 2024 alleges that Live Nation has illegally 00:10:17.830 --> 00:10:21.350 dominated the live concert industry by monopolizing 00:10:21.350 --> 00:10:25.409 ticketing and concert booking. Live Nation directly 00:10:25.409 --> 00:10:29.110 manages more than 400 musical artists and controls 00:10:29.110 --> 00:10:32.509 around 80 % of major concert venues' ticketing. 00:10:34.070 --> 00:10:36.950 Well, alrighty folks, it's time for the quote 00:10:36.950 --> 00:10:40.830 of the day. And today, our quote comes from the 00:10:40.830 --> 00:10:43.909 British author and philosopher, Haldus Huxley. 00:10:44.590 --> 00:10:48.649 And he said, technological progress has merely 00:10:48.649 --> 00:10:51.629 provided us with more efficient means for going 00:10:51.629 --> 00:10:55.730 backwards. And that's a wrap for this morning. 00:10:56.649 --> 00:10:59.529 You can check out our Instagram, YouTube, and 00:10:59.529 --> 00:11:03.210 TikTok for some captivating aerial videos with 00:11:03.210 --> 00:11:07.070 local news and the surf reports.
