As good as it gets.

High pressure to our northwest continues driving in dry air on northwesterly breezes. Low dew points in the 40’s clear the way for a deep blue and cloudless sky. Crisp morning lows around 60 rising to around 70 in the afternoon with gusts towards 20 mph.

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.
