Good morning and a warm welcome to your show, Sunny Mornings in Encinitas.
I'm your host Melissa and it's Thursday, June 6th.
Coming up on today's show, we'll get into the surf report and the weather outlook, then
we'll jump into some local news and a few interesting happenings in business, science
and entertainment.
At first, you'll be interested to know 180 years ago, today in 1844.
Sir George Williams founded the first Le Yenca in London.
The first meeting was held above a drapery shop in St. Paul's Churchyard and brought
together 12 young men.
By the time of the First World Conference in Paris in 1855, the Yenca movement was already
established in nine countries.
So now you know.
And now you know what time it is.
It's time for the surf report.
Expect southwest swell to top out on Thursday, with good summertime breaks in San Diego in
the waist to chest-high range.
Better exposed spots are shoulder-high and standouts push head-high to slightly overhead.
Rise is down on Friday as southwest swell eases, mixing with lingering northwest energy.
Friday in Encinitas and North County, it's looking fair to pour throughout the day at
3 to 4 feet.
Early morning and late afternoon is your best bet.
Best time to ride is at 7 a.m. with the half-foot incoming tide, when the west-northwest swell
is 2 feet at 15 seconds and the onshore wind is 2 mile per hour.
The first high tide Friday will be 3 and a half foot at 1045, with a 2-foot low tide
at 3.
The near shore gooey at Skryps in La Jolla reads 64 degrees for the water temperature.
Checking out the weather in the Encinitas area, this morning it's mostly cloudy and
feels like 63 degrees with 2 mile per hour wind.
The sunset will take place at 755 and it will rise again tomorrow at 540.
It looks like we're in for some patchy fog before 11 a.m.
Otherwise cloudy, then gradually becoming mostly sunny with a high near 67 and wind
of 5 to 10 mile per hour.
Tonight, it'll be mostly cloudy with a low around 62.
Looking ahead in the weather, Friday will be partly sunny with a high near 67 after
morning fog clears.
This weekend will be mostly sunny with highs around 66 and Sunday will be cloudy in the
morning, clearing up to mostly sunny with a high near 65.

In local news, Rubio's Coastal Grill closed 48 locations in California, citing the rising
cost of doing business in the state.
The chain, known for its fish tacos, faced challenges from the $20 an hour fast food
minimum wage, high energy and insurance costs.
Governor Newsom's administration downplayed the closures, pointing to other issues like
bankruptcy and COVID lockdown impacts.
However, the wage mandate pressures, causing increased menu prices and reduced worker hours,
highlight California's hostile business climate, proving that politicians can't dictate
wages without consequences.
Now on to sports.
The NBA is nearing a $76 billion TV deal with NBC, Amazon and ESPN, which would span 11
years and significantly increase the league's media revenue.
This deal marks a pivotal moment for the media and sports industries, highlighting the immense
value of sports rights.
NBC, Amazon and ESPN are set to benefit from streaming and traditional broadcasts.
These agreements could shape the future of sports broadcasting and media mergers, impacting
the industry landscape profoundly.
Last night in local sports, the Padres on the road lost to the Angels 3-2.
But tonight, they're back at home to take on the Diamondbacks.
In top news, the debate over breakfast importance continues among health experts.
Dr. Emily Cooper emphasizes breakfast to prevent low blood sugar and improve mood, suggesting
that even a sugary breakfast is better than none.
Dr. Jonathan Rosand focuses on overall diet quality, not timing, highlighting the benefits
of a nutrient-rich diet.
For children and teens, breakfast aids learning and behavior.
Intermittent fasting, often skipping breakfast, shows health benefits but remains controversial.
Ultimately, personal preference and listening to your body are key in deciding whether to
eat breakfast.
In business news, James Rogozinski founded Wall Street Bets on Reddit in 2012, transforming
his personal boredom and dissatisfaction into a cultural phenomenon.
Originally a board office worker turned options trader, Rogozinski created the forum to share
high-risk trading strategies.
The community exploded in popularity, especially during the GameStop frenzy of 2021, attracting
millions of young traders disillusioned with traditional finance.
Wall Street Bets symbolizes a rebellion against conventional investing, blending dark humor
with risky trades, and reshaping the financial landscape.
Today, young traders continue to engage deeply with the markets, driven by a mix of curiosity,
rebellion, and the desire for financial empowerment.
In crypto movement, Bitcoin is just under $71,000.
Ethereum is nearing $3,800.
And Solana is $172.
Moving on to a more local vibe.

And now, back to the show.
Let's talk science.
Australia's biodiversity is under threat, with about 2,000 native species at risk of
extinction.
Among these is the southern cassowary, a five-foot tall, flightless bird known for its razor-sharp
talons.
Conservation efforts are ongoing, including increased funding and habitat protection,
but challenges remain.
The southern cassowary plays a crucial role in seed dispersal, vital for rainforest health.
Despite new government plans, conservationists worry it may not be enough to protect these
velociraptor-like birds and Australia's unique wildlife.
And in entertainment news, James Gunn's Superman is set to rejuvenate the man of steel's cinematic
presence in 2025.
The film will explore Superman's early days in Metropolis, balancing his Kryptonian heritage
with his life on Earth.
David Kornswitz stars as Clark Kent, with Rachel Brosnahan as Lois Lane.
The cast also includes Heaty Gaffey G, Nathan Fillion, and Nicholas Holt as Lex Luthor.
Gunn aims to create an interconnected DC universe, bringing a fresh take on the iconic hero.
Superman hits theaters on July 11, 2025.
Well, alrighty folks, it's time for the quote of the day.
And today, our quote comes from the Irish poet, Oscar Wilde.
He said,
If a thing is worth doing, it is worth doing well.
If it is worth having, it is worth waiting for.
If it is worth attaining, it is worth fighting for.
If it is worth experiencing, it is worth putting aside time for.
And that's a wrap for this morning.
You can check out our Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok for some captivating aerial videos
with local news and the surf reports.
Have an amazing day, my good friends.
We'll see you tomorrow with another episode of Sunny Mornings in Encinitas.
