1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:07,880 Good morning and a warm welcome to your show, Sunny Mornings in Encinitas. 2 00:00:07,880 --> 00:00:11,680 I'm your host Melissa and it's Monday, August 12th. 3 00:00:11,680 --> 00:00:14,800 You'll be interested to know. 4 00:00:14,800 --> 00:00:22,880 Thirty-six years ago, today, in 1988, American inventor Thomas Alva Edison made perhaps his 5 00:00:22,880 --> 00:00:27,440 most original discovery, the phonograph. 6 00:00:27,440 --> 00:00:34,120 His early recordings were made with indentations embossed into a sheet of tin foil by a vibrating 7 00:00:34,120 --> 00:00:35,800 stylus. 8 00:00:35,800 --> 00:00:42,280 This invention marked a significant milestone in sound recording technology. 9 00:00:42,280 --> 00:00:44,360 So now you know. 10 00:00:44,360 --> 00:00:50,600 And now it's time for the Surf Report. 11 00:00:50,600 --> 00:00:55,880 Expect a mix of knee-to-waist highways from the South Southwest on Monday, building to 12 00:00:55,880 --> 00:00:59,960 waist to stomach high by the afternoon. 13 00:00:59,960 --> 00:01:06,000 Mornings will be glassy with light onshore winds less than 5 miles per hour. 14 00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:11,440 By Tuesday and Wednesday, swells increase to waist to chest high with shoulder high 15 00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:13,480 sets. 16 00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:19,920 Afternoons will become semi-choppy with winds ranging from 5 to 10 miles per hour. 17 00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:25,840 On Thursday, expect waist-high waves with stomach high sets and bumpy conditions as 18 00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:29,440 winds shift to the Southwest. 19 00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:32,640 Monday in Encinitas and North County. 20 00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:37,960 It's looking clean in the morning until 9 at 2 plus feet. 21 00:01:37,960 --> 00:01:44,320 Then it ratchets up a bit at 4 plus feet and ferret choppy until sunset. 22 00:01:44,320 --> 00:01:48,400 Things are looking smoother in South San Diego today. 23 00:01:48,400 --> 00:01:55,560 Best time to ride is at 7 a.m. with a 2.5 foot low tide when the West Northwest swell 24 00:01:55,560 --> 00:02:02,680 is 1.5 feet at 15 seconds and the onshore wind is 2 miles per hour. 25 00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:10,400 The first low tide Monday will be 2.5 foot at 7 a.m. with a 4.5 foot high tide just before 26 00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:12,240 3. 27 00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:19,840 The nearshore buoy at Beacons reads 73 degrees for the water temperature. 28 00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:26,520 This morning it's patchy fog and feels like 67 degrees with no wind. 29 00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:33,320 The sunset will take place at 7.36 and it will rise again tomorrow at 6.11. 30 00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:39,200 It looks like we're in for some mostly sunny skies with a high near 72 and a light breeze 31 00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:40,840 from the Southwest. 32 00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:50,120 Tonight, expect mostly cloudy skies with a low around 68 and a gentle west wind. 33 00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:52,600 Looking ahead in the weather. 34 00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:58,480 Expect mostly sunny days with highs in the low 70s from Tuesday through Saturday. 35 00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:03,120 Nights will be mostly cloudy with lows in the mid 60s. 36 00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:06,960 Southwest winds will be light, adding to the mild conditions. 37 00:03:06,960 --> 00:03:10,180

Walt Disney Company is set to invest $60 billion in new attractions, 47 00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:57,160 nearly doubling its spending over the next decade. 48 00:03:57,160 --> 00:04:03,040 At Disney California Adventure Park, a new Avatar experience will be built, inspired 49 00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:06,640 by Avatar, The Way of Water. 50 00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:12,720 Disneyland will commemorate its 70th anniversary with a show featuring an audio-animatronic 51 00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:14,040 Walt Disney. 52 00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:21,080 Disney's Animal Kingdom in Orlando will see new attractions in the Tropical Americas expansion, 53 00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:26,400 including an Indiana Jones Adventure and an Encanto-themed ride. 54 00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:31,600 These investments aim to bolster Disney's parks as a reliable profit engine, contributing 55 00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:40,040 60% of the company's recent operating profit. 56 00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:42,640 Now on to sports. 57 00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:48,040 Steph Curry has once again dazzled the world, securing an Olympic gold medal with a stunning 58 00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:50,520 performance in Paris. 59 00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:57,040 Known for his incredible three-point shooting, Curry led Team USA to victory against France, 60 00:04:57,040 --> 00:05:03,720 delivering a series of remarkable long-distance shots that left even his teammates in awe. 61 00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:09,880 In his first and likely last Olympics, Curry scored 24 points against France, following 62 00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:14,940 a stellar 36-point game versus Serbia in the semifinals. 63 00:05:14,940 --> 00:05:21,240 His unforgettable display, capped by his signature night-night celebration, solidified his legacy 64 00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:25,640 as the best shooter to ever live. 65 00:05:25,640 --> 00:05:33,680 In local sports, the Padres on the road lost to the Marlins 7-6. 66 00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:40,400 And tonight, the Padres are at home to take on the Pirates. 67 00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:46,960 In top news, the Internal Revenue Service is intensifying efforts to target high-income 68 00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:51,040 individuals who have not filed tax returns. 69 00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:57,240 This year, the agency sent compliance letters to those earning $400,000 or more in years 70 00:05:57,240 --> 00:06:02,600 without filed returns, including some earning over $1 million. 71 00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:08,440 The IRS advises immediate action to avoid penalties and enforcement measures. 72 00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:15,580 Non-filers, making less than $400,000, may also receive notices. 73 00:06:15,580 --> 00:06:24,800 This non-filer initiative focuses on missing returns from tax years between 2017 and 2021. 74 00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:31,320 The unpaid tax amount is estimated to be in the hundreds of millions of dollars. 75 00:06:31,320 --> 00:06:39,480 In business news, venture capital firms are projected to raise under $200 billion in 2024, 76 00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:44,620 a 48% drop from the industry's peak in 2021. 77 00:06:44,620 --> 00:06:51,160 This downturn has led to downsizing and fewer promotions, frustrating younger investors. 78 00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:56,880 Fierce competition for deals has intensified office politics, with many investors growing 79 00:06:56,880 --> 00:06:58,680 disillusioned. 80 00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:03,800 Rising interest rates, delayed initial public offerings, and a slump in public markets have 81 00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:06,960 hit the industry hard. 82 00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:13,440 Frustrations that were manageable during the bull market now seem like deal breakers. 83 00:07:13,440 --> 00:07:19,680 Many investors are considering leaving the industry as opportunities for growth diminish. 84 00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:26,160 In crypto movement, Bitcoin is just under $58,600. 85 00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:29,840 Ethereum is just over

00:08:22,780 --> 00:08:26,480 And now back to the show. 98 00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:28,440 Let's talk science. 99 00:08:28,440 --> 00:08:33,160 Does jewelry and big hair slow down Olympic runners? 100 00:08:33,160 --> 00:08:38,720 Even a little added weight and air drag can make a measurable difference. 101 00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:44,920 According to one physics expert, if it makes you feel strong, go for it. 102 00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:50,400 Olympic athletes spend years perfecting their performance, including their lightweight uniforms. 103 00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:57,720 Yet, at the Paris Olympics, Noah Lyles of Team USA won the men's 100-meter sprint, 104 00:08:57,720 --> 00:09:03,760 while wearing a hefty diamond studded chain and a large Omega Speedmaster watch. 105 00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:08,980 The physics suggests that added weight could slightly reduce acceleration, but the difference 106 00:09:08,980 --> 00:09:10,680 is minuscule. 107 00:09:10,680 --> 00:09:17,640 Similarly, voluminous hair could increase air drag, but again, the impact is minimal. 108 00:09:17,640 --> 00:09:21,840 If accessories boost confidence, athletes should go for it. 109 00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:26,920 And in entertainment news. 110 00:09:26,920 --> 00:09:32,600 Deadpool and Wolverine has crossed the $1 billion mark at the global box office, becoming 111 00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:36,600 the newest member of the Billion Dollar Club. 112 00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:42,320 This Disney Marvel sequel, starring Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman, has grossed approximately 113 00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:47,960 $500 million in North America, and over $500 million internationally. 114 00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:56,160 It is the second release of 2024, following Disney's Pixar hit, Inside Out 2, to surpass 115 00:09:56,160 --> 00:09:58,720 this milestone. 116 00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:04,160 Directed by Sean Levy, it is the first Marvel Cinematic Universe film, featuring characters 117 00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:10,160 previously licensed to 20th Century Fox, marking a significant win for the Marvel Cinematic 118 00:10:10,160 --> 00:10:13,160 Universe. 119 00:10:13,160 --> 00:10:21,280 Well, alrighty folks, it's time for the quote of the day. 120 00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:28,240 And today, our quote comes from the American inventor and businessman, Thomas Edison. 121 00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:30,240 And he said, 122 00:10:30,240 --> 00:10:33,840 Our greatest weakness lies in giving up. 123 00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:40,800 The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time. 124 00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:43,320 And that's a wrap for this morning. 125 00:10:43,320 --> 00:10:49,240 You can check out our Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok for some captivating aerial videos 126 00:10:49,240 --> 00:10:51,680 with local news and the surf reports. 127 00:10:51,680 --> 00:10:54,680 Have an amazing day, my good friends. 128 00:10:54,680 --> 00:11:23,240 We'll see you tomorrow
