RI Weather for October 17, 2022 – John Donnelly
by John Donnelly, meteorologist
With a large upper low pressure system churning about over eastern North America, fronts that pinwheel around them tend to last for some time, so the cold front that will east into the area during the day will last through Tuesday, so clouds and showers will be our early week destiny.
Bouts of rain begin around 11 am and will dot the area through the afternoon and into the night, with maybe a break during the evening hours. Morning lows in the upper 40’s rise to the low 60’s with a light 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.
