Warren received the most snow in Rhode Island during Saturday’s storm that ravaged the East coast, according to reports from the National Weather Service.
A whopping 24.6 inches were reported in Warren, which topped the list of all Rhode Island municipalities, edging West Warwick, which received reports of 24 inches. Bristol, Barrington, and Tiverton all received 22 inches at their deepest measurements.
The historic storm closed down roads, the Mt. Hope Bridge and necessitated parking bans throughout the state as communities huddled and waited out the high-wind gusts and snow drifts that dropped visibility to near-zero for much of the day on Saturday.
Despite the storm’s ferocity, power outages were not recorded in any significant number, and the police report indicates there were no serious injuries from accidents recorded during the storm.
Despite other public schools closing down on Monday, Bristol Warren was back in the classroom to start the week.
