Publisher’s Note: Today is National Weatherperson’s Day! A happy day to you, John – and thank you for bringing us out of the deep freeze!

Just as quickly the cold snap came in, it departs as southwesterly winds behind shifting high pressure brings in warmer air, afternoon highs expected to be in the mid 40’s from morning lows in the mid teens. Some cloud cover will roll in later in the day to act as kind of a blanket bottling in what heat is generated through the day.

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.
