In this Daily -- Macrobiotics and the MLS Championship.

Warm weather today with a spike in temperature right around noon, rising from the low 80s to around 85 for noon and then dropping sharply over the afternoon back to around 81. A healthy breeze today as well coming straight from the east over the hills into town, which should help mellow out the heat as well as the surf, which will should be calm today, well under 2ft. A rising tide throughout the morning with a high tide mid afternoon, and a day well suited to be outdoors, especially in the early morning or around sunset.

Virginia Harper and Morgan Jones's three day seminar on macrobiotics came to a close yesterday with their Limonada luncheon, as the team worked alongside Las Catalinas Head Chef Gilberto Briceño and Sous Chef Kirsia Marchena to turn out 4 delicious courses served on the beach by Limonada. Alongside the food was a Q&A about tips to move forward learning from macrobiotic principles, some suggestions for cooking a macrobiotic meal, and good company all around.

Also in Limonada, a big game on tonight in the form of Atlanta United FC vs the Portland Timbers for the MLS Championship. Playing in only their second season, ATL looks to make a statement with their excellent attack lead by record-breaking Josef Martinez, while the scrappy Timbers, lead by last year's MVP Diego Valeri, look to spoil the party. It's a clash between two of the most rabid fanbases in American soccer, and it should be an excellent game -- showing tonight at 7pm.
