Get an inspection and talk to your realtor but also seller disclosures I don’t think are a requirement in RI? Like the five page check this off kind of disclosure?

EZ tow and glass in Cranston street in Cranston. I got my 2018 Mercedes windshield, which has all the sensors and gadgets it, replaced there, and the price was significantly lower than anywhere.

This is more a question for your realtor, but if the entity selling the home has not lived in it the lack of info on a disclosure is not surprising. They can’t assure you one way or the other if their answers are correct and wouldn’t want to be sued for providing bad info.
Make sure that you exercise your right to inspect the home. A year ago people might have discouraged you from including the standard inspection contingency, but the market is certainly in a place now where you can inspect (I did so recently).

Another option is Broden Millworks in Middletown. They either have it, or can get it.

They are responsible to keep an egress safe.
That said generally speaking there is a pretty wide tolerance for the timeframe - it will vary by city. Pawtucket for instance is 12 hours of "daylight" which I guess could extend more than 1 day but generally what they mean is that if the snow stops overnight the property owners have the day to clear it. If the snow stops at 1 PM, you have to clear it by 1 AM. That kind of thing. Every town is slightly different. RI general law I believe in 24 hours after the storm clears - this applies to things like sidewalks and businesses state wide.
HOWEVER, since the fucking cities don't bother enforcing this stuff on busy pedestrian streets and barely do it on their own properties, I think it will be harder to get code enforcement on your side than you think. Sorry that's just reality.
Tenants with special time needs are often left on their own, which for most storms means you have to figure out how to get to work in the morning after an overnight storm. That's just life. Yes, this law protects you if you have a slip and fall but getting injured and going to court isn't that fun either.
They should at least provide you with the means to take care of it yourself when you need to. Just a bit of ice melt this morning's ice would have been fine. I would request that and let them know about today's situation.

Call your insurance company. I'm with metlife and they give me one a year free if needed. Safelite came to my place and did it in my parking spot. Did not add anything to my monthly premium.

RI Sawmill off Hammet Rd in Coventry. Dimensional lumber. I've gotten Black Walnut from him for posts, also Black Locust.

This right here. Great job pulling up the corresponding Act and sections.

These are valuable questions. Step One would be to check your lease/rental agreement. Step Two would be to check the RI laws on Landlord-Tenant responsibility. I am pretty sure they’re supposed to keep walking areas and parking areas safe at a basic level. Salt and sand for example.

Newport Nautical Timbers in Bristol. Also look on craigslist and FB Marketplace.

Tbh, the only thing I'd recommend against is putting your wipers up, I'd rather them be frozen and have to thaw then have them break from the weight of snow pushing them in directions they weren't meant to go

The short answer is no. You’re at the mercy of the elements and it would be extremely difficult to prove any kind of negligence. All snow was pretty much melted by early morning and it’s very easy for a landlord to say “plow/landscaper hasn’t gotten there yet”.
You’d be doing everyone a favor by doing it yourself on days like today where there wasn’t much need for professional company to come out as it was cleared by 9:00 due to weather. I’m sure most landlords will spring for a $29 bucket of rock salt.
