00:00:13,760 --> 00:00:18,720 Coming up on today's show, we'll get into the surf report and the weather outlook, then 4 00:00:18,720 --> 00:00:24,000 we'll jump into some local news and a few interesting happenings in business, science 5 00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:26,240 and entertainment. 6 00:00:26,240 --> 00:00:29,740 But first, you'll be interested to know. 7 00:00:29,740 --> 00:00:35,220 Today is Good Friday, customarily to honor Jesus Christ's crucifixion, a day marked 8 00:00:35,220 --> 00:00:39,000 by mourning, fasting and penance. 9 00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:45,520 Its date varies tied to the flexible Passover period, falling between March 20th and April 10 00:00:45,520 --> 00:00:47,520 23rd. 11 00:00:47,520 --> 00:00:52,680 Liturgical traditions differ, with the Roman Catholic Church holding a specific liturgy 12 00:00:52,680 --> 00:00:54,880 without mass. 13 00:00:54,880 --> 00:01:00,360 This day remains distinct from more secularized Christian holidays, focusing purely on its 14 00:01:00,360 --> 00:01:03,320 deep religious significance. 15 00:01:03,320 --> 00:01:05,200 So now you know. 16 00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:08,080 And now you know what time it is. 17 00:01:08,080 --> 00:01:11,920 It's time for the surf report. 18 00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:18,060 Expect a mix of northwest and west-northwest swells, creating waist-to-chest-high waves 19 00:01:18,060 --> 00:01:24,480 at most breaks, with potential for chest-to-head-high sets at winter focal points. 20 00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:29,920 Conditions will be mixed, with light to moderate onshore wind. 21 00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:35,160 Over the weekend, the surf height will remain consistent, but conditions could be challenging 22 00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:39,960 due to the onshore wind and rain from the coastal storm. 23 00:01:39,960 --> 00:01:46,040 Friday in Encinitas and North County, it's looking good and clean at 2 plus feet until 24 00:01:46,040 --> 00:01:48,340 11 a.m. 25 00:01:48,340 --> 00:01:51,760 After 12, it's looking unrideable. 26 00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:58,120 Best time to ride is at 8 a.m. with a one-foot incoming tide, when the west-southwest swell 27 00:01:58,120 --> 00:02:04,440 is 2 feet at 14 seconds and the onshore wind is 3 mile per hour. 28 00:02:04,440 --> 00:02:11,900 The first high tide Friday will be 3 feet at 12.30 p.m. with a 2-foot low tide at 5. 29 00:02:11,900 --> 00:02:20,160 The nearshore buoy at Scripps in La Jolla reads 60 degrees for the water temperature. 30 00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:24,080 Checking out the weather in the Encinitas area. 31

00:04:13,920 San Diego is undergoing a major sewer upgrade along Harbor Drive, impacting downtown traffic 55 00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:17,040 and the Barrio Logan area. 56 00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:23,920 This $42 million project aims to replace over 4,000 linear feet of trunk sewer main, enhancing 57 00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:27,920 infrastructure to support growing sewage flows. 58 00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:35,360 Originating from 1941 and last updated in 1979, the project's completion is anticipated 59 00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:38,280 in early 2025. 60 00:04:38,280 --> 00:04:43,920 It involves four phases, including the installation of new sewer mains and under railway steel 61 00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:46,120 carrier pipes. 62 00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:51,440 With the project affecting traffic flow, lane reductions and sidewalk closures are in place, 63 00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:57,200 urging commuters to seek alternative routes or public transportation. 64 00:04:57,200 --> 00:05:06,840 Information and updates are available on the city's website. 65 00:05:06,840 --> 00:05:09,040 Now on to sports. 66 00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:14,080 The Clemson Tigers celebrated a monumental victory, securing their place in the Elite 67 00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:22,120 Eight for the first time since 1980, after defeating Arizona 77 to 72. 68 00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:27,200 Despite the overwhelming support for Arizona in Los Angeles, Clemson's resilience and 69 00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:32,920 strategic play led them to triumph, silencing the opposing crowd. 70 00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:37,960 With a history of performing under pressure, Clemson's experience and team cohesion were 71 00:05:37,960 --> 00:05:41,000 key factors in their success. 72 00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:46,200 Now facing Alabama in the next round, Clemson's journey in the tournament reflects their belief 73 00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:52,080 and capability to contend at the highest levels, showcasing their defensive strength by holding 74 00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:57,720 each opponent to under 40% shooting. 75 00:05:57,720 --> 00:06:06,160 Last night in local sports, the Pondrays in their home opener beat the Giants 6 to 4. 76 00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:13,720 In national hockey, the Kings on the road lost to the Oilers 4 to 1, and the Ducks on 77 00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:17,880 the road lost to the Kraken 4 to 2. 78 00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:23,520 Tonight, the Pondrays are at home to take on the Giants. 79 00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:29,720 In the NBA, the Lakers are on the road in Indiana playing the Pacers, and the Clippers 80 00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:35,340 are on the road in Orlando to take on the Magic. 81 00:06:35,340 --> 00:06:42,160 In top news, the Consumer Sentiment Index in March reached a 32-month peak, indicating 82 00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:47,840 growing optimism among Americans that inflation pressures will lessen. 83 00:06:47,840 --> 00:06:54,640 The final measure of consumer sentiment increased to 80 from an earlier reading of 77, according 84 00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:57,600 to the University of Michigan. 85 00:06:57,600 --> 00:07:03,280 This level is the highest since July 2021, though it remains below the pre-pandemic high 86 00:07:03,280 --> 00:07:06,000 of 101. 87 00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:12,080 The current Economic Conditions Index rose to 83, marking its highest point since July 88 00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:14,480 2021. 89 00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:19,400 Expectations for the next six months also hit a two-and-a-half year high, advancing 90 00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:20,400 to 78. 91 00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:27,040 There's an improved outlook on inflation and personal finances, with the stock market's 92 00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:34,880 strong performance benefiting sentiment, particularly among those with significant investments. 93 00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:41,840 In business news, Bob Iger, known for his persuasive prowess as Disney's CDO, faces 94 00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:48,920 a challenging time with a proxy fight initiated by Nelson Peltz and Tryon Partners, emphasized 95 00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:54,840 by the backing of Ike Perlmutter, who owns a significant portion of Disney stock. 96 00:07:54,840 --> 00:08:00,720 This comes as Iger seeks to convince shareholders of Disney's ongoing recovery efforts amidst 97 00:08:00,720 --> 00:08:05,440 debates over Marvel's casting choices reflecting diversity. 98 00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:11,080 Institutional shareholders' unexpected support for Peltz adds complexity to the upcoming 99 00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:12,960 shareholder vote. 100 00:08:12,960 --> 00:08:18,560 Meanwhile, Disney's succession planning, criticized for its execution during Bob Chuppek's 101 00:08:18,560 --> 00:08:22,080 appointment, remains a focal point. 102 00:08:22,080 --> 00:08:27,800 The Disney board, actively engaging in succession discussions, emphasizes a thorough process 103 00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:33,880 for evaluating potential successors, highlighting the importance of leadership continuity beyond 104 00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:37,680 Iger's tenure. 105 00:08:37,680 --> 00:08:43,040 In crypto movement, Bitcoin is just over $70,000. 106 00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:46,440 Ethereum is at $3,500. 107 00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:52,400 And Solana is $188. 108 00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:56,100 Moving on to a more local vibe. 109 00:08:56,100 --> 00:09:02,120 In our community spotlight on health and maleness, we are working with a national Pilates studio 110 00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:06,320 to bring you some free classes, so listen up. 111

00:09:30,880 So now you can check out Club Pilates for a free class with locations in Encinitas, 116 00:09:30,880 --> 00:09:36,200 Solana Beach, Oceanside, La Jolla, and more. 117 00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:40,360 Just be sure to tell them Sunny Morning sent you by. 118 00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:44,960 And now back to the show. 119 00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:47,240 Let's talk science. 120 00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:51,240 Exercise impacts digestion in various ways. 121 00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:56,080 Moderate activities like walking can enhance digestion by stimulating movements in the 122 00:09:56,080 --> 00:10:01,480 intestines, aiding in nutrient absorption, and maintaining gut health. 123 00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:07,560 However, high-intensity workouts pose challenges as they divert blood flow from the digestive 124 00:10:07,560 --> 00:10:13,560 system to muscles, potentially causing nausea or digestive distress. 125 00:10:13,560 --> 00:10:20,960 To minimize issues, eating a small, carbohydrate-rich snack before exercising is advised. 126 00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:26,540 For endurance athletes, gradually increasing fluid and fuel intake during training can 127 00:10:26,540 --> 00:10:32,560 help acclimate the digestive system to the demands of longer races, ensuring hydration 128 00:10:32,560 --> 00:10:37,880 and nutrient absorption remain optimal. 129 00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:44,560 And in entertainment news, Blue Plus Live TV has bolstered its appeal to sports fans 130 00:10:44,560 --> 00:10:50,880 by adding MLB Network to its Base Subscription Plan just in time for the Major League Baseball 131 00:10:50,880 --> 00:10:53,040 Opening Day. 132 00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:59,200 This move positions Hulu as a strong contender for baseball enthusiasts, offering a comprehensive 133 00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:07,400 suite of national networks broadcasting MLB games, including ESPN, Fox, Fox Sports 1, 134 00:11:07,400 --> 00:11:09,360 and TBS. 135 00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:15,100 Unlike YouTube TV, which no longer carries MLB Network, Hulu's offering is enriched 136 00:11:15,100 --> 00:11:21,960 with the ESPN Plus integration, providing access to a wide range of sports content. 137 00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:28,720 At $77 per month, Hulu's base plan is competitively priced, especially when considering the additional 138 00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:35,500 value of the Disney bundle, which includes ESPN Plus and Disney Plus, making it a compelling 139 00:11:35,500 --> 00:11:40,000 option for sports fans seeking extensive coverage. 140 00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:46,620 Well, alrighty folks, it's time for the quote of the day. 141 00:11:46,620 --> 00:11:50,880 And today, our quote comes from Gordon Ramsay. 142 00:11:50,880 --> 00:11:52,640 And Mr. Top Chef said, 143 00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:58,960 If I can give you one strong piece of advice, when you go away for that romantic weekend, 144 00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:04,240 whatever you do, do not accept or take the upgrade to the honeymoon suite. 145 00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:07,120 Okay, Gordon, you got it. 146 00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:11,720 I don't know why, but you got it. 147 00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:13,760 And that's a wrap for this morning. 148 00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:17,040 Remember to stay tuned tomorrow for more news and updates. 149 00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:21,880 Have an amazing day, my good friends.
