Leaving the Tegna Station After 40 Years

After 40 years of forecasting the weather in the morning for Tegna’s WTHR (Indianapolis) Met Chuck Lofton has decided that he wants to spend more time with his family.

But, he won’t be spending that time until Summer, Lofton says he will be retiring in June.

Not sure why he needed to announce that 6 months before, but he did.

“Chuck has been an integral part of WTHR and the Indianapolis community for decades, with a passion for keeping Hoosiers informed and prepared for Indiana weather,” says Michael Brouder, President and General Manager of WTHR-TV. “His dedication to serving viewers across this great state has set the standard for excellence in broadcasting. While we will miss him dearly, we celebrate his incredible career and the many lives he has touched.”
