<p>Good morning. I'm meteorologist Elizabeth Gardner. Definitely the coldest air we've seen so far this season, temperatures in the upper teens to mid twenties, but take a look at satellite and radar, we still have a strong flow coming out of the northwest but it won't be as windy as it was yesterday. That really made it feel cold during the afternoon. It will be just as cold, but it won't feel quite as bad without as much strong wind as we saw yesterday. We were gusting up to 30 yesterday and our winds will be much calmer today. Here's a look at the cool air that settled in across our area. You can see the dark blue to purple color contours. Temperatures are well below normal. That changes starting tomorrow. We're going to see our wind shifting to Southwester. It's going to start to warm things up. Temperatures will be above normal over the weekend and into early next week as we climb back into the sixties around town today, though, chilly, chilly, chilly, 47 in Raleigh and in Durham, 50 degrees in Fayetteville and our forecast for night almost as cold as what we're seeing this morning. Looking at 24 in Clarksville, 25 South Hill, 24 Wilson 26 in Durham. We've seen a number of temperatures in the northern counties in the teens this morning. So it will be a little bit warmer but still awfully cold out there. 21 in Sanford, 27 Fayetteville, 25 in Smithfield. And these temperatures will feel that of course, early in the morning tomorrow, just before sun a little bit warmer. Over the weekend, our normal low is 37. And so we're back to near normal for Friday morning. And then in the fifties, Saturday, Sunday and Monday morning, of course, we do have some showers to go along with that. We start with some rain on Friday late afternoon and the evening that continues into the day on Sunday, it looked earlier like we might see some rain on Monday. Now it's looking a bit drier but the milder temperatures do continue into early next week.</p>

Convicted killer Alex Murdaugh sentenced for financial crimes

Panthers owner David Tepper explains his plans for the team after firing head coach Frank Reich after 10 losses.

<p>A table will have to answer questions on them later with that. I'll just open it for questions. I will, I will select everybody uh for questions. So if you wanna raise your hand, take the first question from Dave, a hiring that rule, what was the mistakes and the hiring? Frank Wright? Um No, look, every coach that we've had here has been, um, has had contributions to this organization. Uh, Frank has contributions to the organization. Matt has contributions to the organizations. Um And, you know, quite frankly, if I had my brothers, I'd like to have a coach here for 20 years or 30 years. You know, if I can do that, um, you know, I'm not gonna get into the individual sort of things. Um, you guys can just speculate as to that. Uh, but, uh, you know, we just moved on yesterday and that's that we'll have, uh, followed by Dave. You guys are 3063 since you became owner. I think it's the second worst mark in the NFL. One of the worst marks in pro sports. You're about to hire your fourth head coach. Do you need to re re evaluate the way you do things in terms of a may be using a, a search firm in this hiring process, but also in how you manage day to day operations here. Um Look, things are constantly evolving. Um And they'll continue to evolve and, you know, trying to make things better is what you always try to do. Um Obviously, that record is not good enough. Um You know, there's no hiding it, it is what it is. Like everything in this sport, everything's left on the field. Everybody knows what it is every week. Um, that records that record and like I said, it's not good enough. We're gonna self reflect to make it better that day. Um, Dave you, you fired three coaches during the season. Um, you know, in the, in the sense of time you took over, do you feel like that is going to make it more difficult to get a quality head coach here? Uh, if you hire one, choose to hire one someone, uh, next year? No, I think that, I don't know. And again, I'm not going to get into it here, but I think that, um, you know, it's, there are different reasons why different things happened in each, each case. Um, you guys see, like I said, everything is out in the field, everything is known over time and I think people know it, the league knows it and people in the league know it. So I think that, um, if we were, if we everything was perfect, it wouldn't be the case and everything was good. It wouldn't be the case. So it's not as if it's not known out there reasons and, you know, that will be something for people to decide just generally speaking and not here but, and not that this matters because this is here. But, you know, in other aspects of my life, we have people for 2030 years that work for me, nobody ever leaves me. Uh We'll go, uh, Bill Orbit and do, uh when Matt was hired, you, you preach patience and it's kind of a year over year evaluation. Um Frank gets fired 11 weeks in to what extent was that due to a maybe a philosophical shift in how you view timelines for a rebuild or turnaround? Um Look, you know, as I said, there are reasons for each individual situation. I think you guys upon your own reflection into looking what happened to the season can, uh, you know, can understand that you're around town for those that are around town and can know the reasons. Um Again, I'm not gonna get into that particularly into those particulars, but I have, I do have patience. I'm just not my reputation away from this game is one for extreme patience. You know, there's no reason why that doesn't, you know, come here too. It does. Now that patience comes with good performance and things that you want to see progress being made on, on different aspects. Um And as you know, as I said, you know, I would like to have somebody here for 2030 years. I'd like to have somebody that would say eulogy at my funeral in 30 years. Ok. Maybe it's 40 years, I hope. But uh that's what I'd like to have next. We have uh Mike K and Eric spam you preached, uh you talked about, you talked about your patience preaching. So uh you, you talked about your patience. Uh When you moved on from Ron Rivera, you urged the fan base to have patience in terms of bringing in sustained, excellent, sustained success. What would your message to fans be now? Uh four years later that maybe feel like their patience hasn't been rewarded or, or there, it's not moving in the right direction right now, you know, um every week, you know, I watch these games and I've watched, you know, been around football for a long time and listen once upon a time, I was just a fan poor kid in Pittsburgh. That's what I was. So I know what it is to be a fan. And every day, every week we come in as part of us are fans. OK? In the corner, I sit in that box and we live and die with every play. Uh So I understand how the fans and I understand their frustration and I appreciate that. Um I can just say this, we will make it better. I'm not promising that's gonna happen tomorrow, but it may, ok. Football is a really interesting thing. What can happen in two or three year time span and what you're trying to do is have every single building block you can for, you know, an organization and in this organization, you know, while you don't see it, you know, because you see all you see is on the field but you guys may know it or may not know it. But behind the scene, there's been a lot of different changes in the building and a lot of things that have come become a lot better inside the building, you know, and just just how different people communicate, you know, health, you know, um strength room and, you know, and uh medical people, you know, um football operations, nutrition, all those things, all those building blocks underneath the surface have gotten better than when I stepped in the door. Listen, there, there they may be easier things to do, ok? And so we have to make sure that every, the other things that the fans can't see is better too. And also I would say that for, you know, uh engagement with pa past Panthers and that, you know, we should invite you to talk to people who, you know, legends that were here at the Panthers. So we have not gotten what, what the fans see every day, right? I understand their frustration. We share that frustration every Sunday with them, David in, in April, you said when you guys drafted Bryce, you said that he was a point guard style distributor and who could elevate the talent around him? My question to you is, do you feel like you've put enough around him for him to elevate? And with that said, how will that evaluation of the roster in the next six weeks factor into how you evaluate the front office look? Um, you know, there's a lot that goes into, you know, what the success on the field is every week when it's rosters on the scheme, how you practice a lot of things. And obviously, we can be better in all phases of that because the product on the field is just not good enough right now. It just isn't. And so we have to try to make every one of those faces better and whatever it takes to make it better. We're going to try to do there, Dave, you've obviously had a lot of changes, not just on the football side, but on the administrative side also with Charlotte FC. Uh and you just mentioned a few minutes ago that you're patient. So why do you think there is so much constant churn in this organization? And what can you do to stabilize it? Um That's, you know, that's an interesting question. Uh when you talk about that churn and then what the results are, you know, for that churn, you, you, what you call churn. Um, you know, every case is something is done here. There's not, it's not just done because it's done by idle wish. There's a reason and there's a purpose and there's a result and the things goes on when you talk about the, you know, different parts of this, um, this franchise or this building. If you, that you're referring to the business, you're a business guy. Um, you know, when we came here, there were 10 events a year in this stadium basically played plus one or two more, maybe. Um, we do, I think we did 42 events last year, um, in this field, not counting high school football that we brought back for the first time in the stadium and other things like that other type charity thing. So they're not even counting those sort of things, but major type events, um, brought soccer to Charlotte. The, the stands are full. Um, if you were at that last game with Miami, I mean, it was a joyful sort of experience when Messi came to town and, and I think the fans were elated and that sort of, you know, at that point and there have been highs, you know, and there's been highs and lows everywhere. Every game is a, there's some highs, there's some lows, gels, big kick. Um, you know, when Eric Reed was here for the first game. So it's highs and footballs and in other places. But when you look at, you know, in you, since you're asking a business question or answer a business question, when you look at us and how we have and how we do business. And now are we successful in pulling off all these different events we put here? Yeah, we are. And what we've done is really uh led to higher economic impact for Charlotte. And we look at the future for things like that as things that we might do in the future, whether they're in an entertainment venue that may do 80 more sort of small concerts, 3 to 5000 people that will bring people down there. We'll bring that here and we think we brought a lot of economic, uh economic development into the town. We have the numbers show it, I mean, you know, the numbers. Um So I don't think that when you look at the management team and you look at the stability of the management team. Now we finally, I think we, and, and, and listen, you're always trying to make it better, but I think we have a pretty good management team on the business side right now and we are pulling off pretty seamlessly. All these events. Thank you very much, Dave. Thank you. He said, all right, thank you. I appreciate it, Mr T. Uh, in terms of Bryce Young, I want to jump back on what Mike said earlier about Bryce. There's been a lot of reports over the last few days in the fact that that Frank wanted CJ Stroud, you tipped the scales and said you wanted Bryce Young. Is that true? And then also seeing what CJ Stroud is doing in Houston, did that make it? The comparison is even that much greater because of what you're seeing in Houston as opposed to here. Um, just the way our processes go here and I'll just after this really plain and all these and all those decisions, um, you know, whether it was the head coach, whether it was Bryce, I don't really vote on those decisions until the last piece. Ok. So those decisions are made by, you know, in the case of the f by the football people now look, everything that's right and everything that's wrong here ultimately is my fault. Ok? I have the final say, but as far as those decisions, whether it's Frank Wright or it's Bryce Young. Um, those decisions were made and in the case of Bryce, it was almost, I believe it was a unanimous decision and the coaches and the, and the scouts and very strong opinions at the time. Um, now it's been reported and we talked about it originally, we were gonna go to the number two pick and, and, and, uh, we thought we'd get CJ because we thought the Texas were gonna pick price and listen, we preferred Bryce. He was our number one pick. We had a lot of conviction. Um, but, uh, you know, in, in answer to your questions, it's just not the way the process was done, the process was done, the way the process was done. And again, even though if there was a process with five people in the room and four, and the way the votes came in, it was Frank was the first choice. I always could veto that choice. And even if it was price and the votes came in unanimously, in this particular case, I could have vetoed that choice. In both cases. I supported both choices. Ok. I'm just gonna say that I supported both choices. I supported the coaches, I supported the scouts their unanimous opinion. Um, and I supported, uh, Frank Reich. So, um, whatever is good, bad or in different is ultimately because the buck stops here and I take full responsibility for everything, but that's the way the process runs and just one last thing. And I know we, we, we're gonna go here as far as Bryce Young is concerned, I cannot say this, you know, for myself and I think everybody in this building would share this sentiment. We are totally confident in that pick. Ok? I think the people that made that pick first, um, you know, would be totally confident in that. Um, you know, some of them you could ask. Ok. Um, and I think the, um, and, and for me, I'm totally confident in agreeing with that pick Thank you. Thank you, Dave. You made a decision on Scott for dinner. All your first donuts. But then that's great. Mhm. Oh, searching.</p>
