: Changes are about to hit Chicago's two lowest-rated morning shows. But the question is: Will anybody notice? : Just five months after its last wholesale talent shakeup, CBS-owned WBBM-Channel 2 again is remaking its morning lineup. : And after dragging their feet on a renewal for Tammie Souza, the bosses of Fox-owned WFLD-Channel 32 learned Monday that they're losing their morning and noon meteorologist. : Souza, who joined Channel 32 in 2006 after six years at NBC's WMAQ-Channel 5, is believed to be headed to WTSP-TV, the CBS affiliate in Tampa, Fla., as chief meteorologist. : Among changes at Channel 2 will be the replacement of Jim Williams and Kristyn Hartman as morning news anchors by Roseanne Tellez and Don Schwenneker, effective Monday. : Tellez, back from maternity leave, was last seen at 11 a.m. and 5 p.m. Before April's shakeup, she had been morning anchor. : Schwenneker, who was hired as weekend weatherman, most recently did weather at 5 p.m. Now he'll be anchoring news. : Williams returns to anchoring weekend newscasts, replacing Derrick Blakley alongside Mai Martinez. Blakley and Hartman shift to full-time reporting. : Also rejoining Channel 2's morning show as traffic reporter is Susan Carlson, who has been reporting for other newscasts. : (FEDER/st)
