Your RI Weather Today, April 26, 2022 – John Donnelly

by John Donnelly, meteorologist

A cold front moves through during the afternoon with light rain beginning by 3-4pm and carrying through the night. Some sowers may be heavier during the evening. We’ll have a fairly tight temperature range with morning low’s in the mid 40’s followed by an afternoon high in the mid 50’s with a light southerly 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.
