RI Weather for Dec. 6, 2022 – John Donnelly

by John Donnelly, meteorologist

Cloud cover increases from the top down in advance of a developing mid-western frontal system moving into the area. We’ll see some light rain out of this beginning around 8 pm and carrying on through the night. Morning lows around 40 rise to the mid 50’s with a southeasterly 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.
