RI Weather for Dec. 16, 2022 – John Donnelly
by John Donnelly, meteorologist
A wound-up low pressure system passes through the area with rain and gusty northeasterly winds all day, some heavier bouts of rain during the midday hours. A bit warm with morning lows in the low 40’s rising to the mid 40’s, so the precip type will be in the form of rain. Elevated northwesterly areas may catch a rain/snow mix late Friday night.
Winds will be gusting upwards of 40 mph at times, and will last through the whole time period, so power outages will be something to watch. Sad.

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.
