00:00:01.859 --> 00:00:04.639
Good morning and a warm welcome to your show,

00:00:05.219 --> 00:00:09.160
Sunny Mornings in Encinitas. I'm your host, Melissa,

00:00:09.480 --> 00:00:13.699
and it's Friday, October 10th. You'll be interested

00:00:13.699 --> 00:00:21.960
to know. 159 years ago, today, in 1845, the United

00:00:21.960 --> 00:00:25.100
States Naval Academy was founded in Annapolis,

00:00:25.280 --> 00:00:27.940
Maryland, marking a moment of human achievement

00:00:27.940 --> 00:00:31.460
in education and leadership. A beacon of progress

00:00:31.460 --> 00:00:37.500
and aspiration. So now you know. And now it's

00:00:37.500 --> 00:00:43.640
time for the surf report. Friday in Encinitas.

00:00:44.740 --> 00:00:47.299
This morning it's looking fair with waves at

00:00:47.299 --> 00:00:51.259
two feet. Conditions will turn choppy as the

00:00:51.259 --> 00:00:54.079
day goes on with heights dropping to one plus

00:00:54.079 --> 00:00:57.829
feet by noon. Winds are currently onshore at

00:00:57.829 --> 00:01:00.590
8 miles per hour, staying steady through the

00:01:00.590 --> 00:01:03.509
morning before increasing slightly to 10 miles

00:01:03.509 --> 00:01:06.950
per hour in the afternoon. Best time to ride

00:01:06.950 --> 00:01:10.230
is at 8 a .m. with a four -foot incoming mid

00:01:10.230 --> 00:01:13.670
-tide when the southwest swell is one feet at

00:01:13.670 --> 00:01:17.209
15 seconds and the sightshore wind is eight mile

00:01:17.209 --> 00:01:20.769
per hour. The first high tide on Friday will

00:01:20.769 --> 00:01:24.450
be six and a half feet just before 1130 a .m.

00:01:24.620 --> 00:01:29.400
followed by a half -foot low tide at 645. The

00:01:29.400 --> 00:01:33.299
nearshore buoy at Beacons reads 65 degrees for

00:01:33.299 --> 00:01:37.299
the water temperature. Saturday offers clean

00:01:37.299 --> 00:01:40.340
conditions with waves around 2 to 3 feet early,

00:01:40.680 --> 00:01:43.540
but expect choppy conditions as the day progresses

00:01:43.540 --> 00:01:47.459
with increasing winds. Sunday brings a steady

00:01:47.459 --> 00:01:50.700
swell of 3 to 4 feet, maintaining clean conditions

00:01:50.700 --> 00:01:53.500
in the morning before shifting to choppy later.

00:01:54.229 --> 00:01:57.709
Monday sees similar sizes at 3 plus feet, but

00:01:57.709 --> 00:02:00.650
remains choppy throughout, making Sunday the

00:02:00.650 --> 00:02:04.989
standout day for surf. This morning, there's

00:02:04.989 --> 00:02:07.650
a slight chance of showers and thunderstorms,

00:02:07.689 --> 00:02:11.770
and it feels like 67 degrees with 10 mile per

00:02:11.770 --> 00:02:15.689
hour wind. The sunset will take place at 622,

00:02:16.050 --> 00:02:20.500
and it will rise again tomorrow at 652. It looks

00:02:20.500 --> 00:02:22.280
like we're in for a slight chance of showers

00:02:22.280 --> 00:02:25.520
and thunderstorms before 5 p .m., but mostly

00:02:25.520 --> 00:02:28.860
sunny skies with a high near 70 and a northwest

00:02:28.860 --> 00:02:34.580
wind at 10 to 15 miles per hour. Tonight, expect

00:02:34.580 --> 00:02:38.500
partly cloudy skies with a low around 65 and

00:02:38.500 --> 00:02:44.060
light winds. Looking ahead in the weather. Saturday

00:02:44.060 --> 00:02:47.539
will be mostly sunny, with highs near 68 and

00:02:47.539 --> 00:02:50.960
a light southwest wind of 5 to 10 miles per hour.

00:02:51.879 --> 00:02:54.719
Sunday and Columbus Day will stay mostly sunny,

00:02:54.939 --> 00:02:58.020
with highs in the mid -60s and nights near 61,

00:02:58.539 --> 00:03:00.719
though a slight chance of showers returns late

00:03:00.719 --> 00:03:03.460
Monday night into Tuesday, with cooler daytime

00:03:03.460 --> 00:03:06.979
highs near 64 and overnight lows falling to about

00:03:06.979 --> 00:03:11.889

send you. In local news, San Diego has finally

00:03:50.020 --> 00:03:52.879
secured hundreds of millions of dollars for a

00:03:52.879 --> 00:03:55.740
long -planned expansion of the San Diego Convention

00:03:55.740 --> 00:03:59.879
Center after 20 years of challenges. However,

00:04:00.139 --> 00:04:02.400
Mayor Todd Gloria announced that the expansion

00:04:02.400 --> 00:04:05.659
will not happen just yet as the focus will shift

00:04:05.659 --> 00:04:08.879
to updating and modernizing the existing facility.

00:04:09.520 --> 00:04:13.259
An estimated expansion would now cost $1 billion,

00:04:13.979 --> 00:04:17.740
nearly double the previous estimate from 2017.

00:04:18.839 --> 00:04:21.300
Before moving forward, the City must wait for

00:04:21.300 --> 00:04:24.899
5th Avenue LLC's lease to end and introduce an

00:04:24.899 --> 00:04:27.560
ordinance outlining timelines for tax collection

00:04:27.560 --> 00:04:32.240
related to Measure C. 59 % of the funds generated

00:04:32.240 --> 00:04:35.180
from Measure C will be allocated to the Convention

00:04:35.180 --> 00:04:45.029
Center for fiscal year 2026. Now on to sports.

00:04:46.529 --> 00:04:50.370
Last night on Thursday Night Football, the Giants

00:04:50.370 --> 00:04:54.189
beat the Eagles in a stunning upset, 34 to 17.

00:04:54.949 --> 00:05:00.269

The Giants are now 2 -4, and the Eagles fall

00:05:21.720 --> 00:05:26.319
to 4 -2. And on Sunday Night Football this week,

00:05:26.500 --> 00:05:30.279
we got the 4 -1 Lions in Kansas City to face

00:05:30.279 --> 00:05:34.879
the 2 -3 Chiefs. Chiefs are favored by 2 -1,

00:05:35.199 --> 00:05:40.180

three Oregon. Kickoff is at 330 Eastern on CBS.

00:05:55.720 --> 00:05:59.720
In local sports. This week, we got our three

and two Chargers in Miami facing the one and

00:06:03.279 --> 00:06:07.259

00:06:33.660 --> 00:06:36.439
has provided financial assistance to Argentina

00:06:36.699 --> 00:06:40.980
Treasury Secretary Scott Besant confirmed. President

00:06:40.980 --> 00:06:43.639
Donald Trump acted to support an ally in Latin

00:06:43.639 --> 00:06:46.779
America, despite some dissatisfaction among his

00:06:46.779 --> 00:06:50.459
supporters. On Thursday, the Trump administration

00:06:50.459 --> 00:06:53.879
finalized a financial rescue, with Besant revealing

00:06:53.879 --> 00:06:57.139
he directly purchased Argentine pesos in global

00:06:57.139 --> 00:07:00.800
currency markets. This move aims to relieve pressure

00:07:00.800 --> 00:07:03.959
on President Javier Mele, who has implemented

00:07:03.959 --> 00:07:08.410
drastic economic reforms. Along with this intervention,

00:07:08.750 --> 00:07:11.129
the United States has arranged a currency swap

00:07:11.129 --> 00:07:15.189
of $20 billion with Argentina's central bank.

00:07:16.250 --> 00:07:18.689
Economist Brad Setzer criticized the decision

00:07:18.689 --> 00:07:22.029
to buy pesos, noting Argentina's history of debt

00:07:22.029 --> 00:07:27.949
defaults. In business news, Elon Musk is quietly

00:07:27.949 --> 00:07:31.009
expanding in the Bay Area again, starting with

00:07:31.009 --> 00:07:34.810
his brain implant, Startup Neuralink. The company

00:07:34.810 --> 00:07:37.509
has leased a vacant building in South San Francisco,

00:07:37.949 --> 00:07:40.550
marking a fresh sign of Musk's renewed interest

00:07:40.550 --> 00:07:45.449
in the Bay Area tech scene. The property at 499

00:07:45.449 --> 00:07:48.689
Ford's Boulevard had been vacant since 2023,

00:07:49.209 --> 00:07:51.970
after Interven Biosciences pulled out of its

00:07:51.970 --> 00:07:55.790
lease amid an industry downturn. Neuralink has

00:07:55.790 --> 00:07:58.350
developed a brain -computer interface designed

00:07:58.350 --> 00:08:01.149
to help people with paralysis control devices

00:08:01.149 --> 00:08:04.850
using their thoughts. Valued at more than $3

00:08:04.850 --> 00:08:07.990
billion, the company began human trials last

00:08:07.990 --> 00:08:11.430
year, with 12 patients worldwide now having its

00:08:11.430 --> 00:08:15.790
implant. In crypto movement, Bitcoin is down

2 % for the week, to just over $121 ,000. Ethereum

is down 4%, to just over $4 ,300. And XRP is

00:08:28.509 --> 00:08:35.919
down 6%. to $2 .81. Moving on to a more local

00:08:35.919 --> 00:08:40.039
vibe. In our community spotlight on health and

00:08:40.039 --> 00:08:42.899
wellness, we are working with a national Pilates

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

00:09:18.679 --> 00:09:22.720
Sunny Morning sent you by. And now, back to the

00:09:22.720 --> 00:09:29.820
show. Let's talk tech. OpenAI did not expect

00:09:29.820 --> 00:09:33.440
Sora's copyright drama. When it released its

00:09:33.440 --> 00:09:36.779
new AI -generated video app Sora, it included

00:09:36.779 --> 00:09:41.440
an opt -out policy for copyright holders. However,

00:09:41.639 --> 00:09:45.299
after a backlash over content, CEO Sam Altman

00:09:45.299 --> 00:09:48.659
announced a policy reversal to allow rights holders

00:09:48.659 --> 00:09:52.679
to decide how to proceed. Altman acknowledged

00:09:52.679 --> 00:09:55.759
that responses to the app were unexpectedly nuanced.

00:09:55.950 --> 00:09:59.730
with many wanting more control over their likenesses.

00:10:00.210 --> 00:10:02.929
Concerns over misinformation from hyper -realistic

00:10:02.929 --> 00:10:06.210
videos also surfaced, prompting discussions about

00:10:06.210 --> 00:10:10.029
the app's watermark. Despite initial challenges,

00:10:10.529 --> 00:10:13.309
Sora remains a top app on Apple's App Store,

00:10:13.769 --> 00:10:25.879
indicating strong demand. Sam Rockwell portrays

00:10:25.879 --> 00:10:28.840
a disheveled man from the future, sent back to

00:10:28.840 --> 00:10:32.080
save humanity from an impending artificial intelligence

00:10:32.080 --> 00:10:36.059
uprising. Dressed in a plastic raincoat and mismatched

00:10:36.059 --> 00:10:39.639
shoes, he embodies the chaotic energy of a Terry

00:10:39.639 --> 00:10:44.000
Gilliam character. His mission? To find unlikely

00:10:44.000 --> 00:10:46.580
heroes among the late night crowd at a diner

00:10:46.580 --> 00:10:50.159
in Los Angeles. This irreverent film combines

00:10:50.159 --> 00:10:53.639
elements of time loops and video games with Rockwell's

00:10:53.639 --> 00:10:56.179
character trying to break a cycle over numerous

00:10:56.179 --> 00:10:59.879
attempts. It challenges perceptions of reality

00:10:59.879 --> 00:11:03.399
while also critiquing our screen -obsessed society.

00:11:05.000 --> 00:11:07.840
Well, alrighty folks, it's time for the quote

00:11:07.840 --> 00:11:11.940
of the day. And today, our quote comes from the

00:11:11.940 --> 00:11:15.440
American poet and essayist Ralph Waldo Emerson.

00:11:16.500 --> 00:11:19.570
And he said... The only person you're destined

00:11:19.570 --> 00:11:24.070
to become is the person you decide to be. And

00:11:24.070 --> 00:11:27.049
that's a wrap for this morning. You can check

00:11:27.049 --> 00:11:30.529
out our Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok for some

00:11:30.529 --> 00:11:34.049
captivating aerial videos with local news and

00:11:34.049 --> 00:11:37.549
the surf reports. Have an amazing day, my good

00:11:37.549 --> 00:11:40.029
friends. We'll see you tomorrow with another

00:11:40.029 --> 00:11:42.570
episode of Sunny Mornings in Encinitas.
