RI Weather for August 11, 2022 – John Donnelly

by John Donnelly, meteorologist

Predawn mist and morning rain ahead of an advancing cold front begins around 6am and ends around 1pm, but low level moisture hangs around so higher dew points will keep the relative humidity up through the day.

The cold front moves through later in the evening, with drier air settling in after midnight. Morning lows in the upper 60’s and afternoon highs in the upper 70’s with that light southerly wind 10 mph or less.

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.
