It’s hard to imagine anyone in America who hasn’t heard to the legacy of a New England Winter. The East Coast certainly has is benefits, but our winters are known to show us many types of unpleasant weather, the kind that often locks us down in our homes for days on end. This year it looks like we can certainly expect the traditional New England winter weather, but there may be a bit more time for us to prepare this year.
Usually when you think of a winter in Rhode Island, this is the image that comes to mind. Stocking up to weather through storms, parking bans on the streets, and so many layers!

So it looks like there will be a bit of an extended fall season for us all to enjoy, which is a relief to all, especially considering how late sweater weather arrived this year!
