Rhode Island Weather for March 2, 2023 – John Donnelly
by John Donnelly, meteorologist
A low pressure system passes through overnight with light rain ending by 10 am. There is a good deal of warm air advection with this system, so temperatures will be mild for early March, rising to an early afternoon high of 50 from morning lows in the mid 30’s. The system’s associated cold front passes through in the afternoon, and winds will swing around to become northwesterly and accelerate to a gusty 25 mph as the sky begins to clear for a moonlit evening.

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.
