Your RI Weather Today, April 1, 2022 – John Donnelly

by John Donnelly, meteorologist

Overnight rain ends as the cold front moves to our east, but a secondary trough of low pressure chases in behind, kicking up some midday showers. Westerly breezes will remain up, but gusts should not be quite as impressive, topping out around 30 mph.

Afternoon temperatures will reach the upper 50’s and evening lows drop to around 40.

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.
