Rhode Island Weather for Feb. 10, 2023 – John Donnelly

by John Donnelly, meteorologist

A warmer day in store as a cold front passes through and clears away most of the cloud cover that’s been hanging around for a while. Afternoon highs in the mid 50’s cooling to the low 40’s by evening with a gusty westerly breeze.

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.
