Rhode Island Weather for February 27, 2023 – John Donnelly

by John Donnelly, meteorologist

Monday 2/27/23:

A sunny start with lows in the mid 20’s gradually clouds over during the afternoon, as low pressure over the midwest begins to invade the northeastern US. We’ll have an afternoon high in the mid 30’s as a high overcast begins to thicken and lower through the evening on a light southeasterly breeze, with snow beginning around midnight and carrying through the night and into Tuesday.

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.
