The new morning show at WBBM-Ch. 2 to debut this month might not have a name yet, but it does have a new meteorologist.

It will be Megan Glaros from WCBS in New York, WBBM confirmed. Glaros, who hails from Dyer, Ind., and attended Indiana University, was the New York station’s weekend morning meteorologist and entertainment reporter.
Glaros, a former Indianapolis Colts cheerleader, will report the weather  for the show on the Chicago CBS station that will replace “Monsters and Money in the Morning,” a sports-and-money talk show being canceled due to poor viewership. The last show will air Aug. 27.

The new show is slated to debut Aug. 30 in the 4:30 to 7 a.m. weekday time slot, a half hour earlier than “Monsters.”

The new morning show will be anchored by Steve Bartelstein, who also last worked at WCBS in New York. Glaros and Bartelstein worked together for a period at the New York station, a WBBM spokeswoman said.
