Ed Greene’s 47-year career in Denver’s news industry is coming to a close, the weather forecaster announced Friday.
During his final appearance Friday on 9NEWS mornings, Greene announced he’d be passing on his weather clicker and leaving the Denver news scene — for good.
Greene’s nearly half-a-century career in Denver television and radio included time at 9NEWS, Denver7, CBS Colorado and KOA radio.
The 47-year veteran of Denver’s news scene broke into broadcast journalism in radio at KIMN’s Mix 100 in 1972, joined Denver7 as a weather and news anchor in 1976 and jumped to CBS Colorado’s Channel 4 in 1981.
When Greene was phased out of CBS Colorado in 2017, the weather forecaster retired for the first time. At the time, Greene’s 40 years of broadcast experience in Denver made him the longest-serving weather forecaster and on-air broadcast personality in Denver history.
Greene’s first appearance on 9NEWS was during the 1996 Summer Olympic Games in Atlanta, and he officially rejoined the team as a weather forecaster in 2021 after four years of retirement.
