00:00:02.250 --> 00:00:04.370
Good morning and a warm welcome to your show,

00:00:04.509 --> 00:00:08.849
Sunny Mornings in Encinitas. I'm your host, Melissa,

00:00:09.150 --> 00:00:13.230
and it's Friday, July 11th. You'll be interested

00:00:13.230 --> 00:00:18.910
to know, 46 years ago today, in 1979, America's

00:00:18.910 --> 00:00:22.289
first space station, Skylab, re -entered Earth's

00:00:22.289 --> 00:00:25.089
atmosphere after a successful six -year mission

00:00:25.089 --> 00:00:28.730
in orbit. Launched by the National Aeronautics

00:00:28.730 --> 00:00:31.920
and Space Administration, Skylab served as a

00:00:31.920 --> 00:00:35.060
pioneering platform for scientific research and

00:00:35.060 --> 00:00:39.020
technological advancements in space. Its reentry

00:00:39.020 --> 00:00:41.560
marked the end of an era that laid the groundwork

00:00:41.560 --> 00:00:44.840
for future space exploration, inspiring generations

00:00:44.840 --> 00:00:50.439
to reach for the stars. So now you know. And

00:00:50.439 --> 00:00:57.079
now, it's time for the Surf Report. Friday in

00:00:57.079 --> 00:01:01.200
Encinitas and North County. It's looking fair

00:01:01.200 --> 00:01:03.780
this morning with waist -high sets rolling in.

00:01:04.420 --> 00:01:07.519
Waves hold around 2 to 3 feet throughout the

00:01:07.519 --> 00:01:11.019
morning, providing decent conditions. Expect

00:01:11.019 --> 00:01:15.299
the winds to remain sideshore at 5 mph, keeping

00:01:15.299 --> 00:01:19.219
things relatively smooth for now. As the day

00:01:19.219 --> 00:01:22.159
progresses, conditions may become choppy with

00:01:22.159 --> 00:01:27.359
winds shifting to onshore around 10 mph. Best

00:01:27.359 --> 00:01:30.719
time to ride is at 6 a .m. with a zero -foot

00:01:30.719 --> 00:01:34.299
incoming low tide when the west swell is three

00:01:34.299 --> 00:01:37.019
feet at eight seconds and the side -shore wind

00:01:37.019 --> 00:01:41.299
is four mile per hour. The first high tide Friday

00:01:41.299 --> 00:01:45.420
will be three and a half foot at 1115 a .m. with

00:01:45.420 --> 00:01:50.459
a two and a half foot low tide at 345. The near

00:01:50.459 --> 00:01:54.060
-shore buoy at Beacons reads 70 degrees for the

00:01:54.060 --> 00:01:58.150
water temperature. Saturday through Monday features

00:01:58.150 --> 00:02:01.010
waist -to -chest -high south -southwest ground

00:02:01.010 --> 00:02:03.790
swell, beginning with clean conditions in the

00:02:03.790 --> 00:02:06.829
mornings and transitioning to fair afternoons.

00:02:07.670 --> 00:02:11.569
Light winds under 5 mph prevail early, while

00:02:11.569 --> 00:02:14.689
breezy conditions arise later, leading to choppy

00:02:14.689 --> 00:02:18.250
surf by afternoon. Expect occasional chest -high

00:02:18.250 --> 00:02:21.009
sets on Monday morning before conditions become

00:02:21.009 --> 00:02:23.969
bumpy, making for a mixed bag of surf over the

00:02:23.969 --> 00:02:28.849
three days. This morning, it's cloudy and it

00:02:28.849 --> 00:02:33.110
feels like 67 degrees with 8 mile per hour wind.

00:02:33.770 --> 00:02:37.090
The sunset will take place at 8 .02 and it will

00:02:37.090 --> 00:02:41.349
rise again tomorrow at 5 .50. It looks like we're

00:02:41.349 --> 00:02:43.789
in for a partly sunny Friday with temperatures

00:02:43.789 --> 00:02:48.430
reaching around 69 and a light south wind. Tonight,

00:02:48.610 --> 00:02:52.770
we'll see mostly cloudy skies with a low of 64

00:02:52.770 --> 00:02:58.110
and calm winds continuing. Looking ahead in the

00:02:58.110 --> 00:03:02.210
weather, expect partly sunny skies Saturday and

00:03:02.210 --> 00:03:07.069
Sunday with highs near 67 and 68. Nights will

00:03:07.069 --> 00:03:10.830
be mostly cloudy with lows around 64 and 65.

00:03:12.030 --> 00:03:15.889

day from 8 to 5. So stop on by and don't forget

00:03:46.129 --> 00:03:51.240
to tell them. Sunny Morning sends you. In local

00:03:51.240 --> 00:03:54.740
news, all California Highway Patrol officers

00:03:54.740 --> 00:03:57.419
will soon be equipped with body -worn cameras

00:03:57.419 --> 00:04:00.919
as public demand for accountability in law enforcement

00:04:00.919 --> 00:04:04.620
grows. The San Diego County Sheriff's Department

00:04:04.620 --> 00:04:09.539
has utilized these devices since 2017. Although

00:04:09.539 --> 00:04:12.699
not mandated by state law, many agencies have

00:04:12.699 --> 00:04:16.680
embraced this technology. As of July 1st, the

00:04:16.680 --> 00:04:19.139
California Highway Patrol has deployed approximately

00:04:19.139 --> 00:04:23.459
2 ,400 cameras to its officers in major regions.

00:04:24.420 --> 00:04:27.939
Tasha Williamson, a community activist, emphasized

00:04:27.939 --> 00:04:30.819
that these cameras will help determine innocence

00:04:30.819 --> 00:04:36.060
and guilt. Officers in San Diego County are expected

00:04:36.060 --> 00:04:39.300
to receive their cameras and training in November

00:04:39.300 --> 00:04:48.790
of this year. Now on to sports. Jazz Chisholm

00:04:48.790 --> 00:04:51.649
Jr. is gearing up for a stylish appearance at

00:04:51.649 --> 00:04:55.350
the all -star red carpet show, promising a memorable

00:04:55.350 --> 00:04:59.529
entrance. The Yankees infielder has also confirmed

00:04:59.529 --> 00:05:03.509
he will participate in the 2025 Home Run Derby

00:05:03.509 --> 00:05:07.470
on July 14th at Truce Park in Atlanta, as announced

00:05:07.470 --> 00:05:12.060
by Major League Baseball. Chisholm, at 27 years

00:05:12.060 --> 00:05:14.639
old, will be the first Yankee in the Derby since

00:05:14.639 --> 00:05:19.339
2017. This year marks his second All -Star selection,

00:05:19.620 --> 00:05:22.660
and after recovering from injury, he is enjoying

00:05:22.660 --> 00:05:25.379
an impressive season with a batting average of

00:05:25.379 --> 00:05:32.360
.316 since June 3rd. In local sports, Last night

00:05:32.360 --> 00:05:35.579
at Petco, the Padres edged the Diamondbacks 4

00:05:35.579 --> 00:05:40.199
-3 as Tatis Jr. blasted a massive homer and Machado

00:05:40.199 --> 00:05:44.720
also went deep. Morijon snagged the win with

00:05:44.720 --> 00:05:47.839
Suarez closing it out for the safe while Rodriguez

00:05:47.839 --> 00:05:51.879
took the loss for Arizona. The Friars tallied

00:05:51.879 --> 00:05:55.800
13 hits to Arizona's 9, showcasing their resilient

00:05:55.800 --> 00:05:59.860
offense. With this victory, San Diego improved

00:05:59.860 --> 00:06:04.139
to 50 -43, continuing their push in the standings.

00:06:04.899 --> 00:06:07.800
Tonight, the Friars face off against the Phillies

00:06:07.800 --> 00:06:11.459
at Petco Park in San Diego for Game 1 of a three

00:06:11.459 --> 00:06:15.579
-game series. Ryan Vergert, with an earned run

Suarez, who boasts a 2 .19. First pitch is at

00:06:24.709 --> 00:06:28.970
640 under clear skies at a comfortable 69 degrees.

00:06:30.790 --> 00:06:35.389
In top news, a dog named Draco has become an

00:06:35.389 --> 00:06:38.629
unlikely hero after alerting his owner to a potential

00:06:38.629 --> 00:06:43.050
electrical hazard. The pet parent noticed Draco

00:06:43.050 --> 00:06:46.149
obsessively trying to cover a specific power

00:06:46.149 --> 00:06:49.569
outlet in their hallway. Seeking answers, the

00:06:49.569 --> 00:06:51.949
owner shared the unusual behavior on Reddit.

00:06:52.410 --> 00:06:55.610
where the post garnered over 17 ,000 upvotes.

00:06:56.689 --> 00:06:59.509
Commenters quickly identified the issue, leading

00:06:59.509 --> 00:07:01.930
the owner to discover that the outlet's wiring

00:07:01.930 --> 00:07:06.029
was faulty. The landlord had an electrician disable

00:07:06.029 --> 00:07:09.310
it, and now Draco has returned to ignoring the

00:07:09.310 --> 00:07:12.829
outlet. For his efforts, he was rewarded with

00:07:12.829 --> 00:07:18.310
new toys and treats. In business news, Bitcoin

00:07:18.310 --> 00:07:21.430
has reached a new all -time high. trading at

00:07:21.430 --> 00:07:28.730
$113 ,853, driven by President Trump's pro -crypto

00:07:28.730 --> 00:07:31.990
policies, corporate buying, and a rebound in

00:07:31.990 --> 00:07:35.250
the stock market. Following Trump's election

00:07:35.250 --> 00:07:39.569
victory, Bitcoin surpassed $100 ,000 for the

00:07:39.569 --> 00:07:42.050
first time, though its growth faced challenges

00:07:42.050 --> 00:07:46.550
due to market volatility. Now, corporations like

00:07:46.550 --> 00:07:49.990
MicroStrategy and Tesla are stockpiling Bitcoin.

00:07:50.589 --> 00:07:54.050
introducing new risks to the market. Additionally,

00:07:54.290 --> 00:07:56.870
regulators have approved spot Bitcoin exchange

00:07:56.870 --> 00:08:01.370
-traded funds, leading to nearly $148 billion

00:08:01.370 --> 00:08:06.069
in holdings. As always, Bitcoin remains a risky

00:08:06.069 --> 00:08:09.329
asset, correlated closely with stock market trends.

00:08:09.810 --> 00:08:14.689
In crypto movement, Bitcoin is up 7 % for the

00:08:14.689 --> 00:08:21.399
week to about $117 ,000. Ethereum is up 15 %

to just under $3 ,000. And XRP is up 13 % to

00:08:27.759 --> 00:08:35.820
$2 .57. Moving on to a more local vibe. In our

00:08:35.820 --> 00:08:39.039
community spotlight on health and wellness, we

00:08:39.039 --> 00:08:41.720
are working with a national Pilates studio to

La Jolla, and more. Just be sure to tell them.

00:09:16.570 --> 00:09:20.509
Sunny morning sent you by. And now, back to the

00:09:20.509 --> 00:09:26.730
show. Let's talk tech. Microsoft and OpenAI are

00:09:26.730 --> 00:09:29.789
facing a significant moment as they renegotiate

00:09:29.789 --> 00:09:33.149
a contract, allowing OpenAI to transition into

00:09:33.149 --> 00:09:37.370
a for -profit company. OpenAI is preparing to

00:09:37.370 --> 00:09:39.649
release an open -language artificial intelligence

00:09:39.649 --> 00:09:44.750
model, debuting as early as next week. This model

00:09:44.750 --> 00:09:47.629
will enable companies and governments to run

00:09:47.629 --> 00:09:51.490
it independently, contrasting with OpenAI's typical

00:09:51.490 --> 00:09:55.289
closed -weight models. As Microsoft lays off

00:09:55.289 --> 00:09:59.570
as many as 9 ,000 employees, the impact of OpenAI's

00:09:59.570 --> 00:10:02.990
open model could affect Azure customers, potentially

00:10:02.990 --> 00:10:06.809
pushing them towards rival cloud providers. This

00:10:06.809 --> 00:10:09.230
evolving landscape raises questions about the

00:10:09.230 --> 00:10:12.490
future of Microsoft's exclusivity with OpenAI.

00:10:15.980 --> 00:10:19.700
Entertainment news. In an exciting revelation,

00:10:20.179 --> 00:10:24.100
Pedro Pascal and Vanessa Kirby shared that the

00:10:24.100 --> 00:10:27.320
upcoming film, The Fantastic Four, First Steps

00:10:27.320 --> 00:10:32.019
emphasizes family and unity. Directed by Matt

00:10:32.019 --> 00:10:35.159
Shachman, the reboot aims to revive the Fantastic

00:10:35.159 --> 00:10:38.500
Four series after a 10 -year hiatus following

00:10:38.500 --> 00:10:42.259
a poorly received installment. Featuring a star

00:10:42.259 --> 00:10:45.379
-studded cast, the film introduces Marvel's first

00:10:45.379 --> 00:10:48.960
family, including Pascal as Reed Richards and

00:10:48.960 --> 00:10:53.399
Kirby as Sue Storm. Pascal expressed that the

00:10:53.399 --> 00:10:57.539
film embodies optimism and a pure heart. The

00:10:57.539 --> 00:10:59.659
movie, which also explores motherhood through

00:10:59.659 --> 00:11:02.299
Kirby's character, will be released globally

00:11:02.299 --> 00:11:07.620
on July 23rd. Well, alrighty folks, it's time

00:11:07.620 --> 00:11:11.590
for the quote of the day. And today, Our quote

00:11:11.590 --> 00:11:13.769
comes from the American writer and philosopher

00:11:13.769 --> 00:11:19.730
Will Durant. And he said, Every form of progress

00:11:19.730 --> 00:11:25.070
is a victory in the war against ignorance. And

00:11:25.070 --> 00:11:28.129
that's a wrap for this morning. You can check

00:11:28.129 --> 00:11:31.529

00:11:31.529 --> 00:11:35.190

good friends. We'll see you Monday with another

00:11:41.299 --> 00:11:43.960
episode of Sunny Mornings in Encinitas.
