Your RI Weather Today, March 1, 2022 – John Donnelly
by John Donnelly, meteorologist
Low pressure and a cold front develops over the eastern Great Lakes, moving our way through the day with light rain eventually reaching us by early evening and carrying on until just past midnight. We’ll get something good out of the situation with gusty southerly breezes funneling warmer air over us ahead of the front, evening highs in the low 40’s from chilly lows in the upper teens.

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.
