RI Weather for October 28, 2022 – John Donnelly

by John Donnelly, meteorologist

High pressure slides a bit to the east, and a weak trough moves in from the west bringing some high cloud cover to the area during the day. No threat of rain, though, so not to worry. Morning lows in the low 40’s rising to the mid 50’s with northeasterly winds gusting into the 20–25 mph range.

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.
