Today's riddle: What time is it when a clock chimes 13 times? 🤔 (Answer below!)
Weather forecast:
1. Coast Guard intercepts 17 undocumented migrants near Sunset Cliffs (sandiegocountynews.com) — Coast Guard crews intercepted a panga-style boat carrying 17 suspected undocumented migrants about 10 miles off Sunset Cliffs in San Diego early Sunday. Aircraft tracked the vessel to the cutter Forrest Rednour, which detained those aboard and transferred them to federal authorities at Ballast Point for processing, with no further details released so far.
2. Dangerous swimming conditions at San Diego beaches this week (10news.com) — If you’re planning to hit a San Diego beach this week, be aware that the National Weather Service warns of hazardous rip and longshore currents through Friday evening. Surf up to 6–7 feet on south-facing beaches is prompting officials to urge swimmers to stay out of the water or follow strict safety guidance if caught in a rip current.
3. San Diego Zoo Introduces Its Most Stylish Residents, and Their Mustaches Are Legendary (macon.com) — If you’re heading to the San Diego Zoo soon, keep an eye out for its newest social media stars: the mustachioed Inca terns in the Rainforest Aviary. The zoo’s viral video shows off their dapper white “’staches,” raspy calls, and big personalities, sparking thousands of amused comments and plenty of new local fans.
4. Cornhole players rarely miss in U.S. Police and Fire Championships (sandiegouniontribune.com) — San Diego is hosting the 59th annual U.S. Police and Fire Championships this week, drawing nearly 3,000 public safety athletes to 28 venues from Mission Valley to Chula Vista and Carlsbad. Events range from cornhole at the San Diego Marriott Mission Valley to team sports and shooting competitions, all aimed at boosting wellness, camaraderie, and stress relief for first responders.
5. Community members gather outside Otay Mesa Detention Center to show solidarity for detainees (cbs8.com) — Community members gathered Sunday outside the Otay Mesa Immigration Detention Facility in San Diego to support detainees and spotlight local immigration enforcement, just days before a court-ordered county health inspection deadline.
