Good morning, and a warm welcome to your show,
Sunny Mornings in Encinitas. I'm your host, Melissa,
and it's Tuesday, March 10th. You'll be interested
to know. 150 years ago, today, in 1876, Alexander
Graham Bell spoke the first clear sentence into
a new telephone, and his assistant heard him
over a distant wire, creating the inaugural successful
telephone conversation. That achievement proved
voices could be transmitted electrically, launching
a global communication revolution that transformed
business, family life, and long -distance connection.
So now you know. And now, it's time for the Surf
Report. Tuesday in Encinitas. This morning, it's
looking clean with waves around one to two feet.
Conditions should hold steady through the morning
before shifting to fair by noon with 1 plus feet.
By the afternoon, expect choppy conditions as
the wind picks up onshore at 7 to 8 miles per
hour. Best time to ride is at 9 a .m. with a
2 -foot outgoing low tide when the west -northwest

1030 a .m., followed by a half -foot low tide
at noon. The nearshore buoy at Beacons reads
62 degrees for the water temperature. Conditions
start off clean with waves around two to three
feet on Wednesday, gradually building to three
to four feet by evening. Thursday sees continued
size in the 3 to 5 foot range, with cleaner conditions
early before choppy waters develop. Friday holds
steady at 3 to 4 feet, maintaining clean faces
in the morning, but shifts to choppy conditions
later in the day. This morning, there's patchy
fog, and it feels like 61 degrees with no wind.
The sunset will take place at 6 .54. and it will
rise again tomorrow at 7 .05. It looks like we're

mystery behind this gap in Earth's history. In
geological layers around the world, particularly
in the southwestern United States, roughly 1
billion years of rock are absent, a phenomenon
known as the Great Unconformity. While previous
theories suggested causes like snowball Earth
or the formation of this supercontinent, Virginia,
New research indicates that a significant erosion
event, predating growth, may be responsible.

of the National Academy of Sciences, highlights
Earth's first supercontinent, Columbia, as a
key factor in this geological mystery. And in
