1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:07,880
Good morning and a warm welcome to your show, Sunny Mornings in San Diego.

2
00:00:07,880 --> 00:00:12,680
I'm your host Melissa and it's Monday, August 19th.

3
00:00:12,680 --> 00:00:14,640
You'll be interested to know.

4
00:00:14,640 --> 00:00:19,680
212 years ago, today in 1812.

5
00:00:19,680 --> 00:00:25,320
The USS Constitution, commanded by Captain Isaac Hull, won a brilliant victory over the

6
00:00:25,320 --> 00:00:31,760
British frigate, the HMS Guerrier, in the War of 1812.

7
00:00:31,760 --> 00:00:36,640
This significant naval battle, which took place in the Atlantic Ocean, showcased the

8
00:00:36,640 --> 00:00:43,320
superior seamanship and strategic prowess of the American forces.

9
00:00:43,320 --> 00:00:45,400
So now you know.

10
00:00:45,400 --> 00:00:51,560
And now it's time for the Surf Report.

11
00:00:51,560 --> 00:00:55,080
Expect me to waste high swell throughout the week.

12
00:00:55,080 --> 00:01:00,160
Monday and Tuesday mornings will be glassy with light, offshore winds becoming semi-choppy

13
00:01:00,160 --> 00:01:04,560
in the afternoons with stronger onshore winds.

14
00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:09,360
Wednesday and Thursday mornings will have light side shore texture or semi-glassy conditions

15
00:01:09,360 --> 00:01:14,680
with variable winds, turning bumpy in the afternoons.

16
00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:18,480
Monday in Encinitas and North County.

17
00:01:18,480 --> 00:01:23,280
It's looking fair in the morning until 11, at 2 to 3 feet.

18
00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:26,960
Then conditions turn choppy until sunset.

19
00:01:26,960 --> 00:01:30,640
Might get some fair conditions to close out the day.

20
00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:37,520
Best time to ride is at 7 a.m. with the 2-foot incoming mid-tide when the northwest swell

21
00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:44,500
is 1 and a half feet at 14 seconds and the onshore wind is 2 miles per hour.

22
00:01:44,500 --> 00:01:49,880
The first high tide Monday will be 4 and a half foot just before 10 a.m. with a 1 and

23
00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:54,040
a half foot low tide at 315.

24
00:01:54,040 --> 00:02:01,400
The nearshore buoy at Beacons reads 75 degrees for the water temperature.

25
00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:07,640
This morning it's foggy and feels like 64 degrees with no wind.

26
00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:14,480
The sunset will take place at 728 and it will rise again tomorrow at 615.

27
00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:20,040
It looks like we're in for some patchy fog before 11 a.m., but it will clear up for mostly

28
00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:26,440
sunny skies with temperatures near 73 and a gentle northwest breeze.

29
00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:36,400
Tonight expect partly cloudy skies with a low of 68 and patchy fog after 5 a.m.

30
00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:38,920
Looking ahead in the weather.

31
00:02:38,920 --> 00:02:44,720
With patchy fog each morning through Friday gradually clearing by mid-morning.

32
00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:51,680
Daytime highs will range from the upper 60s to low 70s with light northwest winds.

33
00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:57,520
Nights will be partly to mostly cloudy with lows in the mid to upper 60s.

34
00:02:57,520 --> 00:02:59,840
Bonjour food enthusiasts.

35
00:02:59,840 --> 00:03:04,880
This podcast is brought to you by Versailles Cafe and Pastries in Encinitas.

36
00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:11,960
Nestled on El Camino Real South just north of Encinitas Boulevard, this cafe is a haven

37
00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:14,720
for culinary delights.

38
00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:20,280
Indulge in their amazing eggs Benedict or their gluten-free crepes.

39
00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:25,040
You can grab a panini for lunch or just breeze on through to get your morning coffee.

40
00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:29,040
They are open every day from 8 to 5.

41
00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:32,480
So stop on by and don't forget to tell them.

42
00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:35,840
Any morning sends you.

43
00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:37,560
In local news.

44
00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:45,280
Tonight, a marginal supermoon, called both a sturgeon moon and a blue moon, will be visible

45
00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:47,360
worldwide.

46
00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:53,200
This supermoon is full at 1126 a.m. Pacific time but will still be prominent as night

47
00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:54,920
falls on the west coast.

48
00:03:54,920 --> 00:04:02,080
It is a supermoon because it is full within 90% of its closest approach to Earth, occurring

49
00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:04,160
two days later.

50
00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:10,360
The term blue moon may derive from an old English phrase meaning betrayer moon.

51
00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:14,920
The sturgeon moon name comes from the main farmer's almanac credited to the Algonquin

52
00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:19,200
tribes for the large fish caught this time of year.

53
00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:26,800
This moon, also known as the green corn moon, signifies the first full moon after corn ripens.

54
00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:31,860
Two minor meteor showers will also peak during this lunar cycle, visible from the northern

55
00:04:31,860 --> 00:04:41,080
hemisphere in less urban areas with clearer skies.

56
00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:43,440
Now on to sports.

57
00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:49,400
Jordan Spieth, planning for relatively common wrist surgery, hinted after the FedEx St.

58
00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:53,480
Jude Championship that the procedure is imminent.

59
00:04:53,480 --> 00:04:59,140
The Dallas resident, facing a 12-week recovery, aims to be ready for the Hero World Challenge

60
00:04:59,140 --> 00:05:00,600
in December.

61
00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:08,000
Spieth, who is 31 and tied for 68th in the FedEx Cup playoff event, will not advance

62
00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:11,360
to the BMW Championship.

63
00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:16,520
He's troubled by a weak tendon sheath, causing displacement during play.

64
00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:24,360
Spieth's season includes three top-ten finishes, dropping him to 43rd worldwide.

65
00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:32,200
In local sports, the Padres on the road lost to the Rockies, 3-2.

66
00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:39,720
And tonight, they're headed home to take on the Twins for a three-game series.

67
00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:47,520
In top news, Casey Means, doctor and author of the book, Good Energy, reveals that the

68
00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:52,040
path to optimal health begins with food choices.

69
00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:59,320
Our daily micro-decisions about what we eat can alter our genetic and physiological fate.

70
00:05:59,320 --> 00:06:05,240
Means emphasizes that natural foods contain over 5,000 phytochemicals, which impact health

71
00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:07,360
significantly.

72
00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:12,760
She argues that while traditional medical training views nutrition as a non-evidence-based

73
00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:17,460
topic, food is crucial in determining health outcomes.

74
00:06:17,460 --> 00:06:24,680
The choices we make about food act as signaling molecules, influencing gene expression, DNA

75
00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:27,320
folding, and key cell pathways.

76
00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:33,400
Essentially, our bodies are built and maintained by the food we consume.

77
00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:39,680
In business news, streaming services are getting more expensive, and it's time to take a

78
00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:42,840
closer look at your subscriptions.

79
00:06:42,840 --> 00:06:48,680
With prices rising as much as 25% annually, some people are now paying more than they

80
00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:51,560
would for traditional cable.

81
00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:59,020
Major platforms like Netflix, Disney+, and Macs have significantly increased their rates,

82
00:06:59,020 --> 00:07:03,640
and with password sharing crackdowns, the costs keep climbing.

83
00:07:03,640 --> 00:07:07,920
If you're finding it hard to justify these hikes, consider using a subscription tracker

84
00:07:07,920 --> 00:07:12,840
to manage and cut down on unnecessary expenses.

85
00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:19,200
In crypto movement, Bitcoin is just over $58,600.

86
00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:22,840
Ethereum is just over $2,600.

87
00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:28,480
And Solana is $143.

88
00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:31,880
Moving on to a more local vibe.

89
00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:37,840
In our community spotlight on health and wellness, we are working with a national Pilates studio

90
00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:42,160
to bring you some free classes, so listen up.

91
00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:47,000
Check out Club Pilates with several locations in the San Diego area.

92
00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:53,200
Pilates presents a comprehensive wellness approach, cultivating strength, reducing tension,

93
00:07:53,200 --> 00:07:56,680
and elevating mental well-being.

94
00:07:56,680 --> 00:08:00,020
Scientific research affirms its benefits.

95
00:08:00,020 --> 00:08:06,960
So now you can check out Club Pilates for a free class with locations in Encinitas, Solana

96
00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:11,560
Beach, Oceanside, La Jolla, and more.

97
00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:15,680
Just be sure to tell them Sunny Morning sent you by.

98
00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:19,400
And now back to the show.

99
00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:21,360
Let's talk science.

100
00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:24,960
Ever wondered if a snake can fart?

101
00:08:24,960 --> 00:08:31,760
Danny Rabioti, a quantitative ecologist, posed this question on Twitter in 2017, sparking

102
00:08:31,760 --> 00:08:34,200
viral interest.

103
00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:40,960
Rabioti and co-author Nick Caruso turned this curiosity into the 2018 New York Times best

104
00:08:40,960 --> 00:08:43,160
seller, Does It Fart?

105
00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:47,080
The Definitive Field Guide to Animal Flatulence.

106
00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:53,440
They explain that a fart is any gas expelled from the end of an animal opposite its mouth.

107
00:08:53,440 --> 00:09:00,360
Many animals, including humans, hyenas, and manatees, fart, obviously.

108
00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:07,120
Notably, herring fart to communicate, and the bulls and pupfish farts to survive.

109
00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:11,680
However, bats and birds generally do not fart.

110
00:09:11,680 --> 00:09:17,320
And sloths, well, they absorb and breed out methane instead.

111
00:09:17,320 --> 00:09:22,160
And in entertainment news.

112
00:09:22,160 --> 00:09:29,560
In the new Amazon flick, Jackpot, John Cena and Awkwafina star in a twisted lottery game

113
00:09:29,560 --> 00:09:34,760
where anyone can claim the prize by murdering the person with the winning ticket.

114
00:09:34,760 --> 00:09:41,280
Directed by Paul Faye, this Amazon feature erupts into nonstop action and comedy.

115
00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:47,200
Awkwafina plays Katie, a former child actress, while Cena's character is a freelance operator

116
00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:49,540
who protects her.

117
00:09:49,540 --> 00:09:56,040
The film's ingenious premise, combat choreography, and witty lines make it an entertaining, albeit

118
00:09:56,040 --> 00:09:58,640
silly, action comedy.

119
00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:05,400
The chemistry between Cena and Awkwafina elevates the movie, making it more enjoyable than expected.

120
00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:08,160
Well, alrighty, folks.

121
00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:11,280
It's time for the quote of the day.

122
00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:17,800
And today, our quote comes from the American actor and filmmaker, Tom Hanks.

123
00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:18,800
And he said,

124
00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:24,020
You cannot look up at the night sky on the planet Earth and not wonder what it is like

125
00:10:24,020 --> 00:10:27,640
to be up there amongst the stars.

126
00:10:27,640 --> 00:10:33,000
But I always look up at the moon and see it as the single most romantic place within the

127
00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:35,560
cosmos.

128
00:10:35,560 --> 00:10:38,120
And that's a wrap for this morning.

129
00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:44,020
You can check out our Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok for some captivating aerial videos

130
00:10:44,020 --> 00:10:46,680
with local news and the surf reports.

131
00:10:46,680 --> 00:10:49,480
Have an amazing day, my good friends.

132
00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:57,640
We'll see you tomorrow with another episode of Sunny Mornings in Encinitas.
