Your RI Weather Today, April 22, 2022 – John Donnelly

by John Donnelly, meteorologist

High pressure settles to our southwest, with winds still gusting around from the northwest. We’ll have more warmth, making the breezes more tolerable, afternoon highs in the mid 60’s from morning lows in the upper 40’s.

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.
