RI Weather for December 25, 2022 – John Donnelly

by John Donnelly, meteorologist

A near carbon copy batch of weather for our Christmas Day, cold and a bit breezy, but plenty of sunshine. Maybe a touch warmer. Morning lows in the teens rising to the mid 20’s with westerlies blowing to 20-25 mph at times during the afternoon.

Merry Christmas everyone!

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.
