1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:06,960 Good morning and a warm welcome to your show, Sunny Mornings in Encinitas. 2 00:00:06,960 --> 00:00:11,600 I'm your host Melissa and it's Monday, April 29th. 3 00:00:11,600 --> 00:00:16,440 Coming up on today's show, we'll get into the surf report and the weather outlook, then 4 00:00:16,440 --> 00:00:21,680 we'll jump into some local news and a few interesting happenings in business, science 5 00:00:21,680 --> 00:00:23,800 and entertainment. 6 00:00:23,800 --> 00:00:30,920 At first, you'll be interested to know, 70 years ago, today, in 1954. 7 00:00:30,920 --> 00:00:35,980 Comedian Jerry Seinfeld, whose television show Seinfeld was a landmark of American pop 8 00:00:35,980 --> 00:00:41,400 culture in the late 20th century, was born in Brooklyn, New York. 9 00:00:41,400 --> 00:00:43,680 Happy birthday, Jerry. 10 00:00:43,680 --> 00:00:45,560 So now you know. 11 00:00:45,560 --> 00:00:48,400 And now you know what time it is. 12 00:00:48,400 --> 00:00:51,320 It's time for the surf report. 13 00:00:51,320 --> 00:00:59,520 Expect steep-angled, playful northwest swell mix Monday and Tuesday, with waist-to-stomach 14 00:00:59,520 --> 00:01:05,640 high waves at decent spots and chest-ahead high waves at focal points. 15 00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:11,680 Mornings offer the best conditions with weak offshore to light and variable wind. 16 00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:16,480 The northwest swell trends down through the second half of the week. 17 00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:22,480 Modest new southwest, or south-southwest swell moves in later, and into the weekend with 18 00:01:22,480 --> 00:01:29,600 most breaks below waist-high, but a few chest-high sets at south county focal points. 19 00:01:29,600 --> 00:01:36,000 Monday in Encinitas and north county, it's looking good and clean, at 2 to 4 feet until 20 00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:37,000 10. 21 00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:41,240 Then a mix of fair and poor until sunset. 22 00:01:41,240 --> 00:01:44,280 Things are looking better than last week, though. 23 00:01:44,280 --> 00:01:51,120 First time to ride is at 7 a.m., with a one-foot outgoing tide when the south-southeast swell 24 00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:56,920 is 4 feet at 9 seconds, and the offshore wind is just about zero. 25 00:01:56,920 --> 00:02:02,040 The first high tide Monday will be 5 feet just after midnight, with a zero-foot low 26 00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:07,000 tide at 8.30 in the morning, rear day for tides. 27 00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:14,880 The nearshore buoy at Scripps in La Jolla reads 65 degrees for the water temperature. 28 00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:18,800 Checking out the weather in the Encinitas area. 29 00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:25,840 This morning it's mostly cloudy and feels like 57 degrees, with 6 mile per hour wind. 30 00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:32,120 The sunset will take place at 7.29, and it will rise again tomorrow at 6.01. 31 00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:36,920 It looks like we're in for some patchy fog before 11 a.m. 32 00:02:36,920 --> 00:02:43,680 Otherwise mostly cloudy, with a high near 63 and wind of 5 to 10 mile per hour. 33 00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:54,560 Tonight, patchy fog after 11 p.m., otherwise increasing clouds, with a low around 57. 34 00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:56,640 Looking ahead in the weather. 35 00:02:56,640 --> 00:03:02,520 This week starts with patchy fog Tuesday morning, then turns partly sunny with a high near 64 36 00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:03,520 degrees. 37 00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:08,840 Patchy fog is possible again Tuesday night and Wednesday morning, followed by mostly 38 00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:13,680 sunny skies and a high near 63 on Wednesday. 39 00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:18,640 Thursday and Friday will be sunny with highs in the mid-60s. 40

00:03:56,960 --> 00:04:03,880 In local news, San Diego's new initiative, known as Far South Border North, features 50 00:04:03,880 --> 00:04:10,200 an interactive map that guides the public to over 70 local art projects. 51 00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:15,800 This tool, searchable by zip code, enhances accessibility to diverse artworks that reflect 52 00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:19,800 community issues and narratives. 53 00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:25,560 Projects like I Am San Diego and Connected Voices highlight local diversity and the impacts 54 00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:31,360 of COVID-19 using student and multimedia artworks. 55 00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:37,120 Pioneering Justice explores the rich stories of senior citizens and historical figures 56 00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:40,040 through art and quilt making. 57 00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:44,960 Funded partly by a significant grant from the California Arts Council, this program 58 00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:54,920 exemplifies how the arts can drive social change and community engagement. 59 00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:57,080 Now on to sports. 60 00:04:57,080 --> 00:05:01,780 In Sunday's NBA playoff action, the New York Knicks tightened their grip on the series 61 00:05:01,780 --> 00:05:10,220 against the Philadelphia 76ers with a 97-92 victory, taking the 3-1 lead. 62 00:05:10,220 --> 00:05:15,240 The Knicks' defense shown, particularly in the fourth quarter, were strategic adjustments 63 00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:18,480 and relentless efforts stymied the Sixers. 64 00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:25,160 Meanwhile, the LA Clippers equalized their series with the Dallas Mavericks at 2-2 after 65 00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:30,800 a dramatic 116-111 win. 66 00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:36,760 Despite Dallas nearly overcoming a 31-point deficit, Clippers stars Paul George and James 67 00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:42,440 Harden clutch pivotal points late in the game to secure the victory. 68 00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:48,120 Both series have showcased intense competition and pivotal performances as teams vie for 69 00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:50,240 advancement. 70 00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:59,340 Last night in local sports, the Padres at home lost to the Phillies 8-6 and the Clippers 71 00:05:59,340 --> 00:06:04,120 on the road beat the Mavericks 116-111. 72 00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:07,800 That series is now even at two games apiece. 73 00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:14,840 Tonight, the Padres are staying at home to take on the Reds and the Lakers are on the 74 00:06:14,840 --> 00:06:20,640 road in Denver trying to avoid elimination from the playoffs. 75 00:06:20,640 --> 00:06:27,600 In top news, Mexico's manufacturing sector is gaining momentum as companies seek alternatives 76 00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:30,440 to Chinese supply chains. 77 00:06:30,440 --> 00:06:35,680 This strategy, known as nearshoring, involves relocating production closer to the United 78 00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:41,720 States to enhance supply chain resilience amidst geopolitical uncertainties. 79 00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:48,360 Notably, Mexico has surpassed China as the top U.S. exporter, a shift driven by factors 80 00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:52,760 such as lower labor costs and geographic proximity. 81 00:06:52,760 --> 00:07:00,280 Additionally, the U.S.-Mexico-Canada agreement enhances trade efficiency across North America. 82 00:07:00,280 --> 00:07:06,200 However, there are complexities, such as potential tariffs circumvention by Chinese companies 83 00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:12,000 using Mexico as a transshipment point to the U.S. despite these challenges. 84 00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:16,800 The move towards Mexican manufacturing is creating significant opportunities for long-term 85 00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:23,780 economic growth in regions like Monterrey, signaling a robust future for the sector. 86 00:07:23,780 --> 00:07:30,680 In business news, the price of Bitcoin saw a decline following a decision by the Depository 87 00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:37,480 Trust and Clearing Corporation, known as the DTCC, to not accept cryptocurrency-linked 88 00:07:37,480 --> 00:07:46,160 ETS as collateral or extend loans against them, starting April 30, 2024. 89 00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:51,480 This ruling impacts the financial stability and credit assessment of these ETS within 90 00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:57,740 the clearing and settlement services provided by the DTCC. 91 00:07:57,740 --> 00:08:03,280 Despite this, the broader impact on the market may be minimal, as individual brokerage firms 92 00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:08,200 can still invest as they please, based on their risk preferences. 93 00:08:08,200 --> 00:08:13,680 This decision comes even as the Bitcoin exchange trade funds in the U.S. have seen a surge 94 00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:20,040 in institutional interest, amassing over $12 billion in assets under management in only 95 00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:22,140 a few months. 96 00:08:22,140 --> 00:08:32,680 In crypto movement, Bitcoin is just under $63,000, Ethereum is $3,200, and Solana is 97 00:08:32,680 --> 00:08:36,920 $136. 98 00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:40,300 Moving on to a more local vibe. 99 00:08:40,300 --> 00:08:46,240 In our community spotlight on health and wellness, we are working with a national Pilates studio 100 00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:50,400 to bring you some free classes, so listen up. 101 00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:55,480 Check

Sunny Morning sent you by. 108 00:09:24,120 --> 00:09:27,800 And now, back to the show. 109 00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:30,480 Let's talk tech. 110 00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:36,560 Apple is reportedly intensifying discussions with OpenAI about integrating chatbot technology 111 00:09:36,560 --> 00:09:40,480 into iOS 18, according to Bloomberg. 112 00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:45,420 This news comes as Apple also explores other potential partnerships, including one with 113 00:09:45,420 --> 00:09:48,960 Google for its Gemini technology. 114 00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:53,760 These talks are part of a broader initiative by Apple to enhance the AI capabilities of 115 00:09:53,760 --> 00:10:00,000 its devices, possibly including upgrades to Siri that would improve its contextual understanding 116 00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:02,040 capabilities. 117 00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:06,400 The outcomes of these discussions might be unveiled at Apple's Worldwide Developers 118 00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:11,600 Conference in June, where AI is expected to be a major theme. 119 00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:22,360 And in entertainment news, Dune, Heart 2, and Godzilla vs. Kong, both Warner Bros. collaborations 120 00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:28,200 with Legendary Entertainment, have hit significant box office milestones. 121 00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:38,360 Dune has amassed $700 million globally, with $422 million from overseas, and $278 million 122 00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:40,360 domestically. 123 00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:49,760 Meanwhile, Godzilla vs. Kong has achieved a worldwide total of $504 million, with $324 124 00:10:49,760 --> 00:10:57,160 million from international markets, and $176 million domestically. 125 00:10:57,160 --> 00:11:01,600 These successes contribute to Warner Bros.' strong performance this year, leading the 126 00:11:01,600 --> 00:11:09,560 studio to a total of just under $2 billion in global receipts, at a market-leading position. 127 00:11:09,560 --> 00:11:16,760 New releases include Furiosa, A Mad Max Saga, and Sequels to Barbie, and Beetlejuice. 128 00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:22,620 Well, alrighty folks, it's time for the quote of the day. 129 00:11:22,620 --> 00:11:27,760 And today, in honor of Jerry's birthday, our quote comes from the great comedian and 130 00:11:27,760 --> 00:11:32,120 creator of one of the best sitcoms of all time. 131 00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:33,880 Anne Seinfeld said, 132 00:11:33,880 --> 00:11:47,520 Dogs are the leaders of the planet. 133 00:11:47,520 --> 00:11:50,200 And that's a wrap for this morning. 134 00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:56,280 You
