Ill have your forecast next now, we are iowas most accurate forecast with chief meteorologist brad edwards. Certified by weatherrate the experts brad wxc welcome back. Im local 5 chief meteorologist brad edwards. Brad lets take a look at we are iowas most accurate forecast. Brad wxwall we had another round of morning showers go through central iowa, but the rest of the day turned out pretty well. You might have noticed that the winds turned to the nw this afternoon. That was a cool front coming through which means cooler readings in the days to come. We will be mainly dry this evening, but a few showers will likely make it into western iowa this evening and try to move into central iowa later. They will likely dissipate as drier air is in place here. This should hold true into thursday too with lots of clouds, but not much rain here thanks to drier easterly winds. Friday will be our day of showers and a few thunderstorms likely. I think we will get a major wave of rain come through late morning to early afternoon, then a bit drier in the late afternoon. Then more showers will be possible in the evening. Clouds may linger into saturday, but we should have the sun back for saturday afternoon into sunday morning. Brad 2wx thats all for my forecast. Check out weareiowa. Com for the latest in weather. Stephanie 2wx thanks brad. Jack 2bam im here with sports director jon schaeffer, and jon. Lets talk about another big 12 coaching newcomer jon 2bam yeah jack steve prohm isnt the only new face in the big 12. Coming up on local 5 sports well hear from shaka smart about how far back he and prohm go. With jon schaeffer. We are iowa sports jon welcome back the turnover in the big 12 isnt very high you have a list of names like lon kruger or bill self who have been with their respective teams for years. But steve prohm is a name that is new to the conference but he isnt the only one shaka smart has taken over at texas. The longhorns parted ways with rick barnes after last season when he went 20 and 14. Barnes had been last 17 years. Smart makes the jump to texas from vcu where he helped the rams get to the final four in 2011. Smart and prohm are by no means new acquaintences. But both are under the microscope to see what they can do in their first years with big 12 competition. Smart expects a lot from prohm and has a lot of respect for the new iowa state head coach. We talked a lot when i was at vcu and he was at murray state. But weve talked very very little since we both made the moves. Thats just because weve been really really busy we texted a couple of times, we were really busy but we were at uh our former schools we would communicate quite a bit about different ideas we would use with our teams. I mean he was extremely positive and has some great motivational stuff that he uses with his guys so i love talking with him about that stuff. The cyclones and longhorns dont meet until january 12th when iowa state goes down to austin. Itll only be the 4th game of conference play for the cyclones a great road test early. Jon the chicago cubs are pulling out all the stops the chicago cubs are pulling out all the stops well at least they need to. Down 3 nothing going into game 4 tonight at wrigley the cubs need to find their bats again. To the credit of the mets their pitching has been lights out. The cubs have lived and died by the long ball this post season and in these three games its been pretty absent. But tonight chicago has called upon Thomas Ian Nicholas the actor who played Henry Rowengardner in the rookie of the year to come out to the game. Its in hopes of bringing good luck and for the First Time Since the movie hell dawn a rowengartner jersey at wrigley. But in all seriousness whatever luck it may bring the cubs have their backs against the wall. Dont plan on manager joe maddon to change a thing in his clubhouse as far as what he needs to say to his team. Heres what he had to say after last nights loss. I dont have Team Meetings i dont believe in them. For me to stand up and give a speech has nothing to do with tomorrow at all. Our guys know how to come prepared to play, i expect the same thing tomorrow. The mets have just pitched exceptionally well, and you have to give them credit in these three games so from my perspective business as usual tomorrow come out get ready to play and they just take it from there. Cubs and mets first pitch not far off starting at 7 07 at wrigley field.
