00:00:01.660 --> 00:00:04.360
Good morning and a warm welcome to your show,

00:00:04.519 --> 00:00:08.800
Sunny Mornings in Encinitas. I'm your host, Melissa,

00:00:09.080 --> 00:00:13.539
and it's Tuesday, July 22nd. You'll be interested

00:00:13.539 --> 00:00:19.780
to know, 229 years ago today, in 1796, surveyors

00:00:19.780 --> 00:00:22.359
of the Connecticut Land Company named an area

00:00:22.359 --> 00:00:25.760
in Ohio, Cleveland, after General Moses Cleveland,

00:00:26.100 --> 00:00:29.769
the superintendent of the surveying party. This

00:00:29.769 --> 00:00:31.809
event marked the founding of what would become

00:00:31.809 --> 00:00:35.210
a vibrant city, known for its rich cultural heritage,

00:00:35.530 --> 00:00:38.990
industrial innovation, and contributions to music

00:00:38.990 --> 00:00:42.509
and the arts. Cleveland's establishment laid

00:00:42.509 --> 00:00:44.850
the groundwork for a community that would grow

00:00:44.850 --> 00:00:47.649
to inspire and achieve remarkable milestones

00:00:47.649 --> 00:00:53.429
in American history. So now you know. And now,

00:00:53.549 --> 00:01:00.259
it's time for the Surf Report. Tuesday in Encinitas

00:01:00.259 --> 00:01:04.540
and North County. It's looking clean this morning

00:01:04.540 --> 00:01:07.959
with knee -high sets rolling in. Weights hold

00:01:07.959 --> 00:01:10.640
around two feet throughout the morning, providing

00:01:10.640 --> 00:01:14.560
nice conditions. However, expect the winds to

00:01:14.560 --> 00:01:18.120
remain onshore at two mile per hour, keeping

00:01:18.120 --> 00:01:22.280
things smooth as the day progresses. As the afternoon

00:01:22.280 --> 00:01:25.200
approaches, the winds will shift slightly, creating

00:01:25.200 --> 00:01:29.400
semi -choppy conditions. Best time to ride is

00:01:29.400 --> 00:01:33.239
at 6 a .m. with the 1 -foot incoming mid -tide

00:01:33.239 --> 00:01:37.420
when the southwest swell is 1 feet at 17 seconds

00:01:37.420 --> 00:01:42.040
and the onshore wind is 2 mile per hour. The

00:01:42.040 --> 00:01:45.000
first high tide Tuesday will be 4 foot just before

00:01:45.000 --> 00:01:49.459
9 .30 a .m. with a 2 .5 foot low tide at 1 .30.

00:01:50.140 --> 00:01:54.280
The nearshore buoy at Beacons reads 72 degrees

00:01:54.280 --> 00:01:57.909
for the water temperature. Wednesday through

00:01:57.909 --> 00:02:00.489
Friday features clean conditions in the mornings

00:02:00.489 --> 00:02:04.310
with waves ranging from 2 to 4 feet, ideal for

00:02:04.310 --> 00:02:07.590
beginners and longboarders. Light winds under

00:02:07.590 --> 00:02:12.490
5 mph create smooth surfaces early on. However,

00:02:12.770 --> 00:02:15.409
afternoon sessions will see increasing chop and

00:02:15.409 --> 00:02:18.250
winds shifting to the west, making conditions

00:02:18.250 --> 00:02:22.210
less favorable. Expect choppy surf with potential

00:02:22.210 --> 00:02:27.139
for fun rides on Friday evening. This morning,

00:02:27.240 --> 00:02:30.780
it's patchy drizzle, and it feels like 68 degrees

00:02:30.780 --> 00:02:35.680
with 8 mph wind. The sunset will take place at

00:02:35.680 --> 00:02:40.020
7 .57, and it will rise again tomorrow at 5 .57.

00:02:40.900 --> 00:02:43.479
It looks like we're in for some patchy drizzle

00:02:43.479 --> 00:02:47.199
before 11 a .m., then mostly cloudy skies with

00:02:47.199 --> 00:02:50.460
a high around 68, and a light southwest breeze.

00:02:51.319 --> 00:02:55.460
Tonight. Expect cloudy conditions with a low

00:02:55.460 --> 00:03:00.699
of 65 and light winds. Looking ahead in the weather.

00:03:01.500 --> 00:03:04.819
Expect partly sunny skies through Saturday with

00:03:04.819 --> 00:03:09.280
highs around 68 and light northwest winds. Nights

00:03:09.280 --> 00:03:12.439
will be mostly cloudy with lows in the low 60s.

00:03:12.939 --> 00:03:16.740
Bonjour, food enthusiasts! This podcast is brought

00:03:16.740 --> 00:03:20.520
to you by Versailles Café and Pastries in Encinitas.

00:03:21.159 --> 00:03:24.520
Nestled on El Camino Real South, just north of

00:03:24.520 --> 00:03:28.080
Encinitas Boulevard, this cafe is a haven for

00:03:28.080 --> 00:03:32.319
culinary delights. Indulge in their amazing Eggs

00:03:32.319 --> 00:03:36.340
Benedict or their gluten -free crepes. You can

00:03:36.340 --> 00:03:39.300
grab a panini for lunch or just breeze on through

00:03:39.300 --> 00:03:42.560
to get your morning coffee. They are open every

00:03:42.560 --> 00:03:46.979
day from 8 to 5. So stop on by and don't forget

00:03:46.979 --> 00:03:51.759
to tell them. Sunny Morning sends you. In local

00:03:51.759 --> 00:03:57.080
news, a 65 -foot boat crashed into the USS Midway

00:03:57.080 --> 00:04:00.439
Museum on Friday, resulting in thousands of dollars

00:04:00.439 --> 00:04:04.099
in damage. The boat's operator was arrested for

00:04:04.099 --> 00:04:07.419
boating under the influence, hit and run, and

00:04:07.419 --> 00:04:09.919
operating a vessel with a blood alcohol level

00:04:09.919 --> 00:04:13.460
exceeding the legal limit. Surveillance footage

00:04:13.460 --> 00:04:16.339
captured the boat, named Offshore Lifestyle.

00:04:16.829 --> 00:04:19.550
colliding with a decommissioned Navy ship along

00:04:19.550 --> 00:04:23.569
the downtown waterfront. Fortunately, there were

00:04:23.569 --> 00:04:27.430
no reported injuries. The estimated damage to

00:04:27.430 --> 00:04:31.689
the museum is $100 ,000, but the museum remains

00:04:31.689 --> 00:04:35.350
open to the public. The investigation continues.

00:04:40.490 --> 00:04:45.100
Now on to sports. On Sunday, President Donald

00:04:45.100 --> 00:04:47.899
Trump used his social media account to demand

00:04:47.899 --> 00:04:50.899
that two professional sports teams restore Native

00:04:50.899 --> 00:04:54.139
American -based names they had previously abandoned.

00:04:55.180 --> 00:04:58.500
The Washington Commanders and the Cleveland Guardians

00:04:58.500 --> 00:05:02.339
were targeted in his all -caps tirade, with Trump

00:05:02.339 --> 00:05:04.300
threatening the Commanders that he would not

00:05:04.300 --> 00:05:07.240
assist them in securing a stadium deal in Washington,

00:05:07.480 --> 00:05:10.759
D .C., unless they re -embraced the Redskins.

00:05:11.759 --> 00:05:14.899
While the Guardians responded to Trump, the commanders

00:05:14.899 --> 00:05:17.860
have remained silent, prompting speculation about

00:05:17.860 --> 00:05:21.680
their reluctance to engage. Their silence raises

00:05:21.680 --> 00:05:24.139
questions about whether they are simply avoiding

00:05:24.139 --> 00:05:27.459
controversy or secretly wish to revert to the

00:05:27.459 --> 00:05:34.680
old name. Yesterday afternoon in Miami, the Padres

00:05:34.680 --> 00:05:37.980
edged out the Marlins 2 -1 at Lone Depot Park.

00:05:38.860 --> 00:05:41.279
Merrill drove in Bogerts with a single in the

00:05:41.279 --> 00:05:44.000
second, while Maldonado's double tied it up.

00:05:44.819 --> 00:05:47.720
Stowers' solo shot in the fourth secured the

00:05:47.720 --> 00:05:51.899
win. Morihone earned the win, allowing no runs

00:05:51.899 --> 00:05:55.019
over four innings, while Suarez notched the save.

00:05:55.680 --> 00:06:00.439
The Friars now have 55 wins and 45 losses, sitting

00:06:00.439 --> 00:06:04.220
strong in the standings. Tonight, the Friars

00:06:04.220 --> 00:06:07.339
take on the Marlins in Miami for Game 2 of this

00:06:07.339 --> 00:06:12.060
three -game series. Steph Kolek with a 2 .41

00:06:12.060 --> 00:06:15.740
earned run average faces Edward Cabrera, bringing

00:06:15.740 --> 00:06:20.579
a 3 .4 earned run average. First pitch is at

00:06:20.579 --> 00:06:26.920
340 with temperatures around 87 degrees. In top

00:06:26.920 --> 00:06:30.519
news, scientists have made a significant breakthrough

00:06:30.519 --> 00:06:35.199
in nuclear fusion. as the Wendelstein 7X stellarator

00:06:35.199 --> 00:06:38.199
in Germany has set a new record for plasma duration.

00:06:39.100 --> 00:06:42.079
Researchers sustained fusion reactions for an

00:06:42.079 --> 00:06:45.879
impressive 43 seconds, marking the longest duration

00:06:45.879 --> 00:06:49.579
ever achieved in nuclear fusion, surpassing previous

00:06:49.579 --> 00:06:54.220
records held by TOGAMAX. Unlike nuclear fission,

00:06:54.379 --> 00:06:58.040
which produces toxic waste, nuclear fusion only

00:06:58.040 --> 00:07:02.029
requires hydrogen ions. promising clean, limitless

00:07:02.029 --> 00:07:05.889
energy. This achievement demonstrates the potential

00:07:05.889 --> 00:07:09.069
of stellarators, which can operate more flexibly

00:07:09.069 --> 00:07:12.790
and efficiently. Professor Thomas Klinger from

00:07:12.790 --> 00:07:15.810
the Max Planck Institute for Plasma Physics hailed

00:07:15.810 --> 00:07:18.470
this milestone as a step toward viable fusion

00:07:18.470 --> 00:07:23.990
energy. In business news, consumer behavior is

00:07:23.990 --> 00:07:26.939
sending flashing red signals. as an increasing

00:07:26.939 --> 00:07:29.680
number of Americans are skipping car payments.

00:07:30.180 --> 00:07:33.800
While headlines suggest inflation is easing and

00:07:33.800 --> 00:07:36.720
job markets are strong, the reality is troubling.

00:07:37.439 --> 00:07:41.420
According to LendingTree, 5 .1 % of Americans

00:07:41.420 --> 00:07:45.319
are delinquent on auto loans, with 2 % at least

00:07:45.319 --> 00:07:49.779
30 days late. Subprime auto delinquencies have

00:07:49.779 --> 00:07:52.660
reached a 15 -year high, according to Fitch.

00:07:53.680 --> 00:07:56.439
This trend indicates deeper structural pressures

00:07:56.439 --> 00:07:59.339
as even prime borrowers are starting to struggle.

00:08:00.319 --> 00:08:03.040
Investors should focus on these behavioral signals

00:08:03.040 --> 00:08:06.180
as the true risks are often hidden beneath the

00:08:06.180 --> 00:08:11.120
surface. In crypto movement, Bitcoin is unchanged

00:08:11.120 --> 00:08:18.839
at about $117 ,000. Ethereum is down 1 % to just

00:08:18.839 --> 00:08:25.889
under $3 ,700. And XRP is unchanged at $3 .48.

00:08:27.810 --> 00:08:32.669
Moving on to a more local vibe. In our community

00:08:32.669 --> 00:08:35.870
spotlight on health and wellness, we are working

00:08:35.870 --> 00:08:38.649
with a national Pilates studio to bring you some

00:08:38.649 --> 00:08:43.470
free classes, so listen up. Check out Club Pilates,

00:08:43.529 --> 00:08:46.470
with several locations in the San Diego area.

Pilates presents a comprehensive wellness approach.

00:08:50.480 --> 00:08:54.039
cultivating strength, reducing tension, and elevating

00:08:54.039 --> 00:08:57.919
mental well -being. Scientific research affirms

00:08:57.919 --> 00:09:02.360
its benefits. So now you can check out Club Pilates

Solana Beach, Oceanside, La Jolla, and more.

00:09:11.019 --> 00:09:13.980
Just be sure to tell them Sunny Morning sent

00:09:13.980 --> 00:09:19.850
you by. And now, back to the show. Let's talk

00:09:19.850 --> 00:09:23.690
science. Astrophysicists have made a groundbreaking

00:09:23.690 --> 00:09:26.929
discovery revealing the largest known merger

00:09:26.929 --> 00:09:31.309
of two black holes. This violent collision created

00:09:31.309 --> 00:09:35.990
a single black hole approximately 225 times the

00:09:35.990 --> 00:09:39.610
mass of the Sun. The merger produced a gravitational

00:09:39.610 --> 00:09:42.649
wave that rippled across the universe, detected

00:09:42.649 --> 00:09:45.809
by the Laser Interferometer Gravitational Wave

00:09:45.809 --> 00:09:50.460
Observatory in Washington. and Louisiana. The

00:09:50.460 --> 00:09:53.659
faint signal, lasting only 0 .2 seconds, was

00:09:53.659 --> 00:09:57.480
announced on July 13 in Glasgow. Researchers

00:09:57.480 --> 00:10:00.179
are still unraveling the mystery of this event

00:10:00.179 --> 00:10:02.919
and exploring how these black holes may have

00:10:02.919 --> 00:10:06.799
formed. This finding opens exciting new avenues

00:10:06.799 --> 00:10:15.730
for cosmic research. Pedro Pascal is setting

00:10:15.730 --> 00:10:18.190
the record straight regarding his role in Avengers

00:10:18.190 --> 00:10:22.529
Doomsday. In a recent interview, director Matt

00:10:22.529 --> 00:10:26.029
Shachman discussed casting Reed Richards, also

00:10:26.029 --> 00:10:30.190
known as Mr. Fantastic. He mentioned the character's

00:10:30.190 --> 00:10:33.470
evolution from a nerdy scientist to a father

00:10:33.470 --> 00:10:37.269
and leader. However, rumors circulating online

00:10:37.269 --> 00:10:40.870
suggested Pascal would lead the Avengers. which

00:10:40.870 --> 00:10:43.870
he clarified to Entertainment Weekly is not the

00:10:43.870 --> 00:10:47.750
case. What Matt has said about Reed and the comic

00:10:47.750 --> 00:10:50.110
has been taken out of context, he explained.

00:10:50.870 --> 00:10:54.090
The upcoming Fantastic Four First Steps opens

00:10:54.090 --> 00:10:56.990
in theaters this weekend, with Avengers Doomsday

00:10:56.990 --> 00:11:02.450
set for release on December 18th, 2026. Well,

00:11:02.549 --> 00:11:05.470
alrighty folks, it's time for the quote of the

00:11:05.470 --> 00:11:09.480
day. And today, our... quote comes from the American

00:11:09.480 --> 00:11:13.419
journalist and author Robert Quillen. And he

00:11:13.419 --> 00:11:17.440
said, progress always involves risk. You can't

00:11:17.440 --> 00:11:20.299
steal second base and keep your foot on first.

00:11:21.779 --> 00:11:25.379
And that's a wrap for this morning. You can check

00:11:25.379 --> 00:11:28.700
out our Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok for some

00:11:28.700 --> 00:11:32.299
captivating aerial videos with local news and

00:11:32.299 --> 00:11:35.809
the surf reports. Have an amazing day, my good

00:11:35.809 --> 00:11:38.210
friends. We'll see you tomorrow with another

00:11:38.210 --> 00:11:40.909
episode of Sunny Mornings in Encinitas.
