00:00:01.800 --> 00:00:04.700
Good morning and a warm welcome to your show,

00:00:05.240 --> 00:00:09.099
Sunny Mornings in Encinitas. I'm your host, Melissa,

00:00:09.359 --> 00:00:13.179
and it's Friday, October 3rd. You'll be interested

00:00:13.179 --> 00:00:19.980
to know. 35 years ago, today, in 1990, Germany

00:00:19.980 --> 00:00:23.579
was joyfully reunified, ending decades of division

00:00:23.579 --> 00:00:26.800
and marking a triumphant moment of human unity

00:00:26.800 --> 00:00:30.679
and democratic progress. This inspiring event,

00:00:31.420 --> 00:00:34.579
celebrated as German Unity Day in Berlin, Germany,

00:00:35.000 --> 00:00:37.979
stands as a powerful testament to reconciliation,

00:00:38.520 --> 00:00:41.140
perseverance, and the enduring human spirit.

00:00:42.679 --> 00:00:47.320
So now you know. And now, it's time for the Surf

00:00:47.320 --> 00:00:53.979
Report. Friday in Encinitas. This morning it's

00:00:53.979 --> 00:00:56.799
looking clean with two feet of swell coming from

00:00:56.799 --> 00:01:00.560
the south -southwest. Winds are offshore at 3

00:01:00.560 --> 00:01:03.579
miles per hour early on, but will shift onshore

00:01:03.579 --> 00:01:06.920
by 10 o 'clock, picking up to 7 miles per hour.

00:01:07.700 --> 00:01:10.819
I expect conditions to become fair by late morning

00:01:10.819 --> 00:01:14.780
and then choppy as the day goes on. Best time

00:01:14.780 --> 00:01:18.420
to ride is at 8 a .m. with a 4 -foot high tide

00:01:18.420 --> 00:01:21.760
when the south -southwest swell is 1 .5 feet

00:01:21.760 --> 00:01:25.299
at 12 seconds and the offshore wind is 2 miles

00:01:25.299 --> 00:01:29.140
per hour. The first high tide on Friday will

00:01:29.140 --> 00:01:33.319
be 4 .5 feet just before 8 a .m., followed by

00:01:33.319 --> 00:01:37.799
a 2 -foot low tide at 115. The nearshore buoy

00:01:37.799 --> 00:01:41.959
at Beacons reads 69 degrees for the water temperature.

00:01:43.719 --> 00:01:46.219
Expect fair conditions with waves around 3 to

00:01:46.219 --> 00:01:49.319
4 feet on Saturday, though choppiness increases

00:01:49.319 --> 00:01:53.120
in the afternoon. Sunday brings cleaner lines

00:01:53.120 --> 00:01:56.650
and a steady 2 to 3 -plus feet. making it the

00:01:56.650 --> 00:02:00.150
standout day of the period. Monday holds similar

00:02:00.150 --> 00:02:03.189
sizes but shifts to choppy conditions later,

00:02:03.629 --> 00:02:08.110
as winds pick up throughout the day. This morning,

00:02:08.349 --> 00:02:12.449
it's cloudy and it feels like 66 degrees, with

00:02:12.449 --> 00:02:16.889
5 mile per hour wind. The sunset will take place

00:02:16.889 --> 00:02:20.090
at 6 .32, and it will rise again tomorrow at

00:02:20.090 --> 00:02:24.020
6 .47. It looks like we're in for a mostly cloudy

00:02:24.020 --> 00:02:27.639
day with a high near 68 and a light southeast

00:02:27.639 --> 00:02:32.120
wind blowing at 5 to 15 miles per hour. Tonight,

00:02:33.180 --> 00:02:36.120
expect mostly cloudy skies with a low around

00:02:36.120 --> 00:02:42.120
62 and a gentle northeast breeze. Looking ahead

00:02:42.120 --> 00:02:45.780
in the weather, Saturday will be mostly sunny

00:02:45.780 --> 00:02:49.330

00:05:16.639 --> 00:05:20.019
we got the 2 -2 Patriots in Buffalo to face the

in the winner -take -all Game 3 of their wild

00:05:52.199 --> 00:05:55.639
-card series last night. Things became tense

00:05:55.639 --> 00:05:58.620
in the ninth inning for the home team. The Cubs

00:05:58.620 --> 00:06:00.939
benefited from what seemed to be a bad strike

00:06:00.939 --> 00:06:05.300
call by home plate umpire DJ Rayburn. After the

00:06:05.300 --> 00:06:08.360
Padres' Jackson Merrill -Homard, shortstop Xander

00:06:08.360 --> 00:06:11.899
Bogart struck out on a 3 -2 count on a ball that

00:06:11.899 --> 00:06:15.740
appeared to be below the strike zone. Bogart's

00:06:15.740 --> 00:06:20.240
protested, as did manager Mike Schilt. The Padres'

00:06:20.439 --> 00:06:23.000
season is now over while the Cubs advance to

00:06:23.000 --> 00:06:25.639
face the Milwaukee Brewers in the National League

00:06:25.639 --> 00:06:30.620
Division Series. On to the NFL. This week, we

00:06:30.620 --> 00:06:33.829

47 -and -a -half. Kickoff is at 1 .25 on Fox.

00:06:45.430 --> 00:06:48.589
And in college football tomorrow, the now unranked

00:06:48.589 --> 00:06:51.970
four -and -one Trojans are on a buy. Next week,

00:06:51.970 --> 00:06:56.509
they're back at home to face Michigan. In top

00:06:56.509 --> 00:07:00.170
news, this country has just been named the best

00:07:00.170 --> 00:07:04.370
place in the world. to retire in 2025 for its

00:07:04.370 --> 00:07:08.810

00:07:08.810 --> 00:07:13.310
topped the new 2025 Global Retirement Index,

00:07:13.670 --> 00:07:18.389
evaluated across 44 developed states. The report

00:07:18.389 --> 00:07:21.589
emphasized that Norway regained its top position,

00:07:21.949 --> 00:07:25.029
driven by strong health outcomes, low unemployment,

00:07:25.470 --> 00:07:29.129
and high income equality. It ranked first in

00:07:29.129 --> 00:07:32.189
material well -being, second in quality of life,

00:07:32.370 --> 00:07:35.350
and fourth in health. The United States came

00:07:35.350 --> 00:07:39.250
in at 21st place. However, relocating to Norway

00:07:39.250 --> 00:07:41.850
can be challenging for United States citizens

00:07:41.850 --> 00:07:44.509
due to strict residence permit requirements.

00:07:46.069 --> 00:07:49.829
In business news, getting an MBA in the United

00:07:49.829 --> 00:07:53.649
States has become more expensive and less profitable.

00:07:54.949 --> 00:07:57.750
A Bloomberg analysis shows that the return on

00:07:57.750 --> 00:08:00.680
investment fell at four out of five business

00:08:00.680 --> 00:08:04.319
goals, as pay after graduation has stagnated.

00:08:05.720 --> 00:08:08.199
This year's update projects a typical return

00:08:08.199 --> 00:08:13.480
on investment of 12 .3 % a year, down from 13

00:08:13.480 --> 00:08:18.019
.3 % last year. The main reason for this decline

00:08:18.019 --> 00:08:21.279
is that projected post -degree earnings increased

00:08:21.279 --> 00:08:27.120
only 1 .7%. Syracuse University's Whitman School

00:08:27.120 --> 00:08:29.839
of Management experienced the sharpest decline

00:08:29.839 --> 00:08:34.559
as tuition and expenses rose significantly. Tulane

University's Freeman School of Business saw its

00:08:37.639 --> 00:08:40.179
return on investment double thanks to a rise

00:08:40.179 --> 00:08:44.159
in compensation and crypto movement. Bitcoin

00:08:44.159 --> 00:08:50.720
is up 7 % for the week to $120 ,000. Ethereum

00:08:50.720 --> 00:08:55.990
is up 9 % to just under $4 ,500. And XRP is up

00:08:55.990 --> 00:09:03.350
5 % to $3 .01. Moving on to a more local vibe.

00:09:04.470 --> 00:09:07.309
In our community spotlight on health and wellness,

00:09:07.909 --> 00:09:10.330

00:09:45.580 --> 00:09:49.639
Sunny Morning sent you by. And now back to the

00:09:49.639 --> 00:09:56.549
show. Let's talk tech. Okanai's Sora has skyrocketed

00:09:56.549 --> 00:10:00.970
to third place on the App Store. Currently, Okanai

00:10:00.970 --> 00:10:04.289
has two apps in the top three, but it still trails

00:10:04.289 --> 00:10:07.429
behind Gemini due to the sustained success of

00:10:07.429 --> 00:10:12.129
Google's Nano Banana image model. On September

00:10:12.129 --> 00:10:16.309
30th, Okanai released Sora, a social app powered

00:10:16.309 --> 00:10:19.210
by a revamped version of its original generative

00:10:19.210 --> 00:10:23.120
video model. Despite being invite -only, the

00:10:23.120 --> 00:10:26.919
app gained considerable momentum, with 56 ,000

00:10:26.919 --> 00:10:29.519
installs in the United States on its first day

00:10:29.519 --> 00:10:34.440
and 108 ,000 installs on its second day. Interestingly,

00:10:35.000 --> 00:10:37.440
two out of the current top three apps heavily

00:10:37.440 --> 00:10:41.059
rely on multimodality, suggesting users may prefer

00:10:41.059 --> 00:10:50.139
image - and video -based AI features. Shane Black

00:10:50.139 --> 00:10:53.179
believes Robert Downey Jr.'s portrayal of Dr.

00:10:53.399 --> 00:10:56.679
Doom will single -handedly reinvigorate comic

00:10:56.679 --> 00:11:00.419
book movies. Downey is returning to the Marvel

00:11:00.419 --> 00:11:03.620
spotlight, but this time he is not suiting up

00:11:03.620 --> 00:11:07.019
as Iron Man. He will take on the iconic villain

00:11:07.019 --> 00:11:10.120
role in Marvel Studios' upcoming film, Avengers

00:11:10.120 --> 00:11:13.639
Doomsday. Black expressed his excitement about

00:11:13.639 --> 00:11:16.860
Downey's casting during a promotion for his movie,

00:11:17.360 --> 00:11:21.490
Play Dirty. Despite skepticism from fans and

00:11:21.490 --> 00:11:24.169
critics, many think Downey's return could be

00:11:24.169 --> 00:11:27.750
just what Marvel needs to regain momentum. If

00:11:27.750 --> 00:11:30.450
the film delivers, it might reshape how legacy

00:11:30.450 --> 00:11:33.389
actors are utilized in superhero storytelling.

00:11:35.049 --> 00:11:37.950
Well, all righty, folks. It's time for the quote

00:11:37.950 --> 00:11:42.049
of the day. And today, our quote comes from the

00:11:42.049 --> 00:11:46.629
American author and poet, Maya Angelou. And she

00:11:46.629 --> 00:11:49.929
said... We may encounter many defeats, but we

00:11:49.929 --> 00:11:54.070
must not be defeated. And that's a wrap for this

00:11:54.070 --> 00:11:57.629
morning. You can check out our Instagram, YouTube,

00:11:57.850 --> 00:12:01.090

00:12:05.389 --> 00:12:08.110
amazing day, my good friends. We'll see you tomorrow

00:12:08.110 --> 00:12:11.470
with another episode of Sunny Mornings in Encinitas.
