Rhode Island Weather for March 8, 2023 – John Donnelly

by John Donnelly, meteorologist

Canadian High pressure over Ontario and a batch of low pressure centers over the open Atlantic keep the pressure gradient in place over the northeastern US, so we will remain breezy for at least another day. Winds out of the north-northwest will gust to 30 mph with slightly higher afternoon temps in the mid 40’s and morning lows in the upper 20’s.

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.
