Kendra Kent

Kendra Kent joined FOX Carolina as the Chief Meteorologist in July 2008. She came to the Carolinas from Fort Smith, Ark.

In Arkansas, Kendra tracked tornadoes, devastating ice storms, flash floods and hail storms. In fact, her car got caught in the crossfire. During a widespread hailstorm in Fort Smith, her car was totaled by golf-ball-sized hail. It was during that same storm that she worked with her weather team to evacuate the KFSM-TV studio while a rotating storm passed over the station.

Kendra has always loved science. Eventually, that love became a passion for the weather.

She began her education at Tulane University where she obtained a degree in Cell and Molecular Biology. While attending classes at Tulane, Kendra also interned at WDSU-TV in New Orleans. There she learned about forecasting tropical weather.

It was then that she realized weather was the career she wanted. So, she headed to Starkville, Miss., to attend Mississippi State University. There she obtained her Masters in Geosciences with an emphasis in Broadcast Meteorology.

Kendra has been awarded the American Meteorological Society’s Seal of Approval. She is also a licensed amateur HAM radio operator. This helps her to get the latest information to viewers during severe weather.

In her spare time, Kendra loves spending time with her fiancé Brannon and Bufkit, their Siamese cat.
