Windshield replacement is usually covered in RI Insurance so yeah...anyone reputable company literally. Call your insurance company!

Is your inspection sticker out of date? I think anything over about two months out of date and they stop your renewal.

**Note: don't get "clumping" kitty litter. You need the non-clumping kind.

If you are in Newport, you will see a lot less snow overall year to year. Near the water, you can expect warmer temps into fall (and later leaf changes) due to the relatively warmer water. In the spring, inland will see far warmer temps in early spring than Newport due to the cold (relatively) water.
Towns like Newport and Narragansett typically are affected more by what storms they get. We are in Northern RI and our town has 3 or 4 highway snow plows. I think the south coast of RI towns have a few pickups with a plow. Big difference. The Worcester MA "snow belt" extends down to Smithfield RI or so...this is where the big snow is in Southern NE.

I second tirerack.com. Great experience ordering through them, and it was cheaper than other places I had looked at. I was also looking for a specific tire though.

I had good luck using MeetUp when I lived across the country a few years back. Plenty of groups based on your interests to find like minded people.

Very thorough! Second most of this. Especially sledding. But you can also find pro snow tubing at Wachusetts if you're up for a half day trip and have the $30 - if I'm remembering correctly, they bring you up with a rope tow.
I will say I've never owned snow tires and haven't had any issue, even during my several years in Western MA where we had considerably more snow. But if you can afford them/have that expendable income, they are helpful.

I feel like February always ends up being the snowiest month. We hardly have much snow in December nowadays

How about volunteering?

You can try the gyms around, some of the breweries, and there's also different clubs like the Elks!
I know there's a boxing club around the Warwick/Cranston line too

I just hope the Mavis acquisition of them doesn’t change things. Melvins has always been fair to deal with.

This interpretation brings out its best light. Look forward to seeing more through your vision.

We are below the normal seasonal snow amount so far this winter in RI. This happened about 7 years ago, and we ended up with high snow totals after getting several big storms. The weather is fickle here. We got 24” on April 1st about 30 years ago. If you do get enough snow in Newport I recommend sledding at Fort Adams on inflatable tubes. It’s a nice hill overlooking the harbor.

No. I remember having a friend who lived down there and many many years ago her sister was escorted off the property one night.

Get used to RI being the NO state, and anything requiring effort being viewed as uncool
