00:00:01.819 --> 00:00:04.679
Good morning, and a warm welcome to your show,

00:00:05.219 --> 00:00:09.199
Sunny Mornings in Encinitas. I'm your host, Melissa,

00:00:09.619 --> 00:00:14.000
and it's Monday, October 6th. You'll be interested

00:00:14.000 --> 00:00:20.179
to know. Thirty years ago, today in 1995, Swiss

00:00:20.179 --> 00:00:23.820
astronomers Michael Mayer and Didier Colloz announced

00:00:23.820 --> 00:00:26.879
the discovery of the first exoplanet orbiting

00:00:26.879 --> 00:00:29.949
a sun -like star. A groundbreaking moment in

00:00:29.949 --> 00:00:32.609
astronomy that expanded our understanding of

00:00:32.609 --> 00:00:36.530
planetary systems beyond our own. A truly inspiring

00:00:36.530 --> 00:00:41.090
milestone in human discovery. So now you know.

00:00:41.969 --> 00:00:48.609
And now, it's time for the Surf Report. Monday

00:00:48.609 --> 00:00:52.250
in Encinitas. This morning it's looking clean

00:00:52.250 --> 00:00:56.390
with waves at 2 plus feet. Conditions stay clean

00:00:56.390 --> 00:00:59.789
and hold steady at two to three feet until around

00:00:59.789 --> 00:01:04.150
10 a .m. when it shifts to fair. By noon, it

00:01:04.150 --> 00:01:06.909
gets choppy as the wind picks up to nine mile

00:01:06.909 --> 00:01:11.109
per hour. Current winds are onshore at one mile

00:01:11.109 --> 00:01:15.870
per hour. Best time to ride is at 7 a .m. with

00:01:15.870 --> 00:01:19.329
a four -foot incoming high tide when the southwest

00:01:19.329 --> 00:01:23.370
swell is one feet at 16 seconds. and the onshore

00:01:23.370 --> 00:01:27.329
wind is one mile per hour. The first high tide

00:01:27.329 --> 00:01:30.930
on Monday will be six feet at 9 a .m., followed

00:01:30.930 --> 00:01:36.030
by a zero -foot low tide at 315. The nearshore

00:01:36.030 --> 00:01:40.049
buoy at Beacons reads 67 degrees for the water

00:01:40.049 --> 00:01:43.909
temperature. Conditions start fair with waves

00:01:43.909 --> 00:01:46.750
around two to three feet and light northwest

00:01:46.750 --> 00:01:50.879
winds on Tuesday. Wednesday sees similar sizes

00:01:50.879 --> 00:01:54.019
but shifts to choppy conditions by midday as

00:01:54.019 --> 00:01:57.480
winds pick up from the west northwest. Thursday

00:01:57.480 --> 00:02:00.079
declines to one to two feet with choppy surf

00:02:00.079 --> 00:02:02.840
throughout, making it the least favorable day

00:02:02.840 --> 00:02:07.640
of the period. This morning it's cloudy and it

00:02:07.640 --> 00:02:12.240
feels like 68 degrees with no wind. The sunset

00:02:12.240 --> 00:02:15.360
will take place at 628 and it will rise again

00:02:15.360 --> 00:02:19.659
tomorrow at 649. It looks a grin for a partly

00:02:19.659 --> 00:02:23.020
sunny day with a high near 68 and a light south

00:02:23.020 --> 00:02:28.159
wind. Tonight, expect mostly cloudy skies with

00:02:28.159 --> 00:02:33.780
a low around 63 and light northwest winds. Looking

00:02:33.780 --> 00:02:37.199
ahead in the weather, Tuesday will be partly

00:02:37.199 --> 00:02:40.800
sunny with a high near 68 and a northwest wind

00:02:40.800 --> 00:02:44.939
of 5 to 10 miles per hour. A mostly cloudy night

00:02:44.939 --> 00:02:48.330
follows with lows near 63. and Wednesday stays

00:02:48.330 --> 00:02:52.389
partly sunny with a high near 67 and a low around

00:02:52.389 --> 00:02:56.509
64 Wednesday night. Rain chances increase Thursday

00:02:56.509 --> 00:02:59.370
afternoon into Friday, with highs rising to near

00:02:59.370 --> 00:03:04.110
71 and overnight lows in the mid -60s. Bonjour,

00:03:11.810 --> 00:03:14.969
nestled on El Camino Real South, just north of

00:03:14.969 --> 00:03:18.650
Encinitas Boulevard. This cafe is a haven for

00:03:18.650 --> 00:03:22.770
culinary delights. Indulge in their amazing Eggs

to get your morning coffee. They are open every

00:03:33.090 --> 00:03:37.430
day from 8 to 5. So stop on by and don't forget

00:03:37.430 --> 00:03:44.240
to tell them. Sunny mornings send you. A fire

00:03:44.240 --> 00:03:48.099
lasting over nine hours at the Chevron, El Segundo

00:03:48.099 --> 00:03:51.460
refinery has left motorists in Southern California

00:03:51.460 --> 00:03:55.860
racing for higher gas prices. The refinery, which

00:03:55.860 --> 00:03:59.340
processes about 300 ,000 barrels of crude oil

00:03:59.340 --> 00:04:02.419
daily, contributes to one -fifth of the region's

00:04:02.419 --> 00:04:05.819
motor vehicle fuel and 40 % of its jet fuel.

00:04:06.789 --> 00:04:10.150
Petroleum analyst Matt McLean estimated potential

00:04:10.150 --> 00:04:13.909
price increases could reach between 35 and 95

00:04:13.909 --> 00:04:17.670
cents per gallon. Although nearby residents have

00:04:17.670 --> 00:04:20.509
mostly resumed their routines, concerns linger

00:04:20.509 --> 00:04:24.449
regarding air quality. Chevron is conducting

00:04:24.449 --> 00:04:27.050
an internal investigation into the incident,

00:04:27.310 --> 00:04:29.910
which has been fully extinguished, while local

00:04:29.910 --> 00:04:32.430
authorities advise residents to stay indoors

00:04:32.430 --> 00:04:42.310
if they detect smoke. Now on to sports Last night

00:04:42.310 --> 00:04:46.449
on Sunday night football the Patriots upset the

00:04:46.449 --> 00:04:51.550
Bills in Buffalo 23 to 20 Drake May was 22 for

00:04:51.550 --> 00:04:57.050

00:05:02.189 --> 00:05:07.029
with 253 passing yards two passing touchdowns

00:05:07.029 --> 00:05:11.079
and one interception. Next Sunday, the three

00:05:11.079 --> 00:05:14.120
and two pats head to New Orleans to play the

00:05:14.120 --> 00:05:17.680
Saints at one. The four and one Dills lick their

00:05:17.680 --> 00:05:20.699
wounds and head to Hotlanta for Monday Night

00:05:20.699 --> 00:05:24.560
Football. And tonight on Monday Night Football,

00:05:24.660 --> 00:05:27.720
we have the two and two Chiefs at the three and

00:05:27.720 --> 00:05:32.199
one Jaguars, starting at 815 Eastern on ESPN.

00:05:33.399 --> 00:05:36.379
The Chiefs are favored by three and a half. with

00:05:36.379 --> 00:05:42.420
the over -under set at 45 .5 in local sports.

00:05:43.800 --> 00:05:47.379
Yesterday afternoon in Los Angeles, the Chargers

00:05:47.379 --> 00:05:52.240
lost to the commanders 27 to 10. Justin Herbert

00:05:52.240 --> 00:05:58.939
was 22 for 29, with 166 passing yards, one passing

00:05:58.939 --> 00:06:03.220
touchdown, and one interception. Jaden Daniels

00:06:03.220 --> 00:06:09.279
was 15 for 26, with 251 passing yards, one touchdown,

00:06:09.540 --> 00:06:14.100
and no interceptions. Next Sunday morning, the

00:06:14.100 --> 00:06:17.379
3 -in -2 Bolts take on the 1 -in -3 Dolphins

00:06:17.379 --> 00:06:25.100
in Miami at 10 on CBS. In top news, Fair Isaac

00:06:25.100 --> 00:06:29.019
Corporation, known as FICO, is transforming the

00:06:29.019 --> 00:06:31.819
credit scoring market by offering mortgage lenders

00:06:31.819 --> 00:06:35.100
direct access to its credit scores without relying

00:06:35.100 --> 00:06:40.000
on Experian, Equifax, or TransUnion. Following

00:06:40.000 --> 00:06:44.139
this announcement, shares of FICO surged by 18%,

00:06:44.139 --> 00:06:46.560
while shares of credit -scoring firms dropped

00:06:46.560 --> 00:06:51.319
by up to 11%. This shift is one of the most significant

00:06:51.319 --> 00:06:54.579
changes in decades, prompted by regulatory scrutiny.

00:06:55.540 --> 00:06:58.259
FICO's new program allows resellers to purchase

00:06:58.259 --> 00:07:02.779
scores for $4, plus an additional $33 upon loan

00:07:02.779 --> 00:07:05.600
closure. potentially increasing mortgage costs.

00:07:06.639 --> 00:07:09.660
The impact on borrowers will depend on how resellers

00:07:09.660 --> 00:07:12.399
and credit bureaus respond to these changes.

00:07:13.800 --> 00:07:18.180
In business news, high earners age 50 and older

00:07:18.180 --> 00:07:21.100
are facing new restrictions on retirement savings.

00:07:22.720 --> 00:07:25.360
Starting next year, catch -up contributions for

00:07:25.360 --> 00:07:27.759
those individuals will need to be made after

00:07:27.759 --> 00:07:34.060
tax if their income exceeds $145 ,000. This change,

00:07:34.399 --> 00:07:37.180
mandated by the Internal Revenue Service, means

00:07:37.180 --> 00:07:39.759
that many will pay taxes upfront during their

00:07:39.759 --> 00:07:42.399
high -earning years rather than during retirement.

00:07:43.279 --> 00:07:47.259
With catch -up limits reaching up to $11 ,250,

00:07:48.019 --> 00:07:50.660
this may push some into higher tax brackets.

00:07:51.759 --> 00:07:54.600
However, it could encourage savers to reassess

00:07:54.600 --> 00:07:57.699
their investment strategies, potentially favoring

00:07:57.699 --> 00:08:00.519
Roth accounts for tax -free withdrawals in retirement.

00:08:01.129 --> 00:08:05.370
In crypto movement, Bitcoin is up 3 % over the

00:08:05.370 --> 00:08:12.350
weekend to $124 ,000. Ethereum is up 1 % to just

00:08:12.350 --> 00:08:19.990
over $4 ,500. And XRP is down 1 % to $2 .97.

00:08:22.230 --> 00:08:26.709
Moving on to a more local vibe. In our community

00:08:26.709 --> 00:08:29.740
spotlight on health and wellness. We are working

00:08:29.740 --> 00:08:32.720

00:08:44.480 --> 00:08:48.019
cultivating strength, reducing tension, and elevating

00:08:48.019 --> 00:08:51.759
mental well -being. Scientific research affirms

00:08:51.759 --> 00:08:56.299
its benefits. So now you can check out Club Pilates

00:08:56.299 --> 00:09:00.100

Solana Beach, Oceanside, La Jolla, and more.

00:09:05.299 --> 00:09:07.919
Just be sure to tell them Sunny Morning sent

00:09:07.919 --> 00:09:13.820
you by. And now, back to the show. Let's talk

00:09:13.820 --> 00:09:18.240
tech. OpenAI is shifting its approach to copyright

00:09:18.240 --> 00:09:22.019
works in Sora, its AI video generation application.

00:09:22.759 --> 00:09:25.919
Chief Executive Sam Altman announced that copyright

00:09:25.919 --> 00:09:28.620
holders will gain more control over how their

00:09:28.620 --> 00:09:32.080
characters are utilized. Users can now create

00:09:32.080 --> 00:09:35.100
and share videos within a social media feed.

00:09:36.259 --> 00:09:39.360
Prior to the app's launch, OpenAI informed talent

00:09:39.360 --> 00:09:42.220
agencies and studios they would need to opt out

00:09:42.220 --> 00:09:45.039
to avoid their copyrighted material appearing

00:09:45.039 --> 00:09:49.179
in generated videos. Altman emphasized that this

00:09:49.179 --> 00:09:52.360
policy will resemble the opt -in model for likenesses.

00:09:52.549 --> 00:09:56.490
but with additional controls. He also noted that

00:09:56.490 --> 00:09:59.909
open AI must find ways to monetize Sora while

00:09:59.909 --> 00:10:06.049
sharing revenue with rights holders. Entertainment

00:10:06.049 --> 00:10:10.730
news. In Hollywood, the rise of artificial intelligence

00:10:10.730 --> 00:10:14.730
actress Tilly Norwood is causing quite a stir.

00:10:16.330 --> 00:10:19.269
Aline van der Velden, founder of AI production

00:10:19.269 --> 00:10:22.919
studio Particle 6. envisions Tilly as the next

00:10:22.919 --> 00:10:26.200
big star, aiming for representation by a major

00:10:26.200 --> 00:10:30.080
talent agency soon. However, industry leaders

00:10:30.080 --> 00:10:32.659
are expressing concerns about the implications

00:10:32.659 --> 00:10:37.279
of AI performers. Gersh Agency president Leslie

00:10:37.279 --> 00:10:40.840
Siebert labeled Tilly's phenomenon as frightening.

00:10:42.080 --> 00:10:45.559
While some actors fear job displacement, others,

00:10:45.840 --> 00:10:49.240
like producer Scott Stuber, emphasize that the

00:10:49.240 --> 00:10:53.029
human condition in storytelling remains irreplaceable.

00:10:54.009 --> 00:10:57.090
As studios consider AI's potential, the debate

00:10:57.090 --> 00:10:59.929
surrounding creative authenticity and ethical

00:10:59.929 --> 00:11:03.990
boundaries continues. Well, all righty, folks.

00:11:04.309 --> 00:11:08.110
It's time for the quote of the day. And today,

00:11:08.429 --> 00:11:10.690
our quote comes from the American astronomer

00:11:10.690 --> 00:11:15.149
and science communicator, Carl Sagan. Anti -set.

00:11:16.169 --> 00:11:18.470
Somewhere, something incredible is waiting to

00:11:18.470 --> 00:11:22.350
be known. And that's a wrap for this morning.

00:11:23.309 --> 00:11:25.850
You can check out our Instagram, YouTube, and

00:11:25.850 --> 00:11:29.509
TikTok for some captivating aerial videos with

00:11:29.509 --> 00:11:33.570
local news and the surf reports. Have an amazing

00:11:33.570 --> 00:11:35.970
day, my good friends. We'll see you tomorrow

00:11:35.970 --> 00:11:39.289
with another episode of Sunny Mornings in Encinitas.
