Good morning and a warm welcome to your show,
Sunny Mornings in Encinitas. I'm your host, Melissa,
and it's Wednesday, October 1st. You'll be interested
to know. 135 years ago, today in 1890, Yosemite
National Park was established in Yosemite Valley,

as a testament to human achievement and environmental
guardianship. So now you know. And now, it's

news, the San Diego City Council could approve
a proposal on Tuesday to raise water rates by
63 % by 2029, with wastewater rates increasing
by 31%. If approved, the first increase will
take effect in January, impacting all meter sizes
similarly. For instance, the monthly water service
charge for a one -inch meter will rise from $46
to $80 over the next four years. City officials
emphasize that rising costs to purchase water
from the San Diego County Water Authority are
driving these increases, which are necessary
to address critical challenges and maintain service
quality. The council will discuss these proposed
rigged hikes at its session at 2 p .m. on Tuesday.
Now onto sports. In Miami Gardens, Florida, Dolphin's
wide receiver Tyree Kill will not need another

show. Let's talk science. Are mosquitoes attracted
to beer drinkers? Scientists conducted research
at a music festival to find out. Their study
examined how beer, sunscreen, diet, and other
factors correlate with mosquito attraction. Findings
suggest that certain behaviors, such as drinking
beer and avoiding sunscreen, may increase susceptibility
to bites. While not yet peer -reviewed, this
is the largest study to investigate the impact
of hygiene and intoxication on mosquito preferences.
Understanding mosquito attraction is crucial
as they spread deadly diseases like malaria and
dengue. Researchers found that participants who
drank alcohol or did not use sunscreen were more
likely to attract mosquitoes. Avoiding beer or
certain social habits may not reliably prevent
bites, so protective measures remain essential.
