RI Weather Today, October 5, 2022 – John Donnelly
by John Donnelly, meteorologist
Same old story, light rain and chilly-breezy conditions as Ian hangs around off the southern New England coast. High pressure begins to build to the northwest, so we’ll have slightly more push behind the storm, which should signal the end of this dismal situation after today.
Highs and lows within a couple of degrees through the day, mid to maybe upper 50’s and a north-northwesterly breeze gusting to around 30 mph.

John Donnelly was born in Hialeah, Florida and moved back to Rhode Island and settled in Johnston, where he grew up until graduating from Lyndon State College in 1998 with a Bachelor of Science in Meteorology. As a child John always wanted to know how air moved, and he ran towards, not away from, thunder and lighting and various other ominous weather phenomena. He returned in 2001 to the old family neighborhood of Elmhurst where the McCabe’s, Donnelly’s, Walker’s and Callan’s have been since after the Civil War.
