Kent Boughton, Nebraska’s Weather Voice, Passes Away | Lincoln News
Description
Kent Boughton, beloved chief meteorologist for News Channel Nebraska and a broadcasting legend with roots dating back to his teenage DJ days, passed away Sunday after a courageous battle with stage four cancer. Known for his iconic voice and unwavering presence on Nebraska airwaves, Boughton was inducted into the Nebraska Broadcasters Hall of Fame just last year and returned to TV even after retirement — including a surprise 2025 comeback. His family honored his legacy with a memorial service set for August 1st, and in his memory, they invite supporters to give to youth and college scholarships through the Nebraska Wild Turkey Federation, Hunter’s Education, and the Nebraska Broadcasters Association.
