From radio in the forty's and television in 1951 when he joined WBZ-4, Don Kent was my family's all time favorite weatherman. We looked foward to his radio weather forecasts from WBZ 1030 even while living in Northfield, VT.

I always wanted to thank him, and got to do just that a few years ago when I looked him up in the phone book and called him at his home in Sanbornton, NH. He answered my call and we got to talk for some ( 45 minutes ) and if anyone knows Don it wasn't just about the weather. It was during winter with snow on the ground at his place and he had been out earlier in the day burning brush.
It was a very special treat for me to let him know that he had a HUGE FAN BASE.

Don Is The Norman Rockwell Of New England Weather!
