Need to Know: Snow Monday, Dog Licenses, VIN Check Hours

Warwick, RI  — The National Weather Service warns of a windy weekend ending in a snowstorm Sunday lasting through Monday morning, dog licensing has officially moved under the City Clerk’s umbrella, and Tuesday hours for VIN check have been changed.

Snow caps weekend plans

The National Weather Service predicts a snowstorm forecast to begin on Sunday will likely leave 5 to 6 inches of snow on the ground before ending Monday morning. According to weather.com, the snow is scheduled to begin at about 3 p.m. locally.

If you’ve optimistically stowed your snow shovels already, it might be wise to break them out for what will hopefully be one last time.

The National Weather Service is also warning of a moderate risk of gale force winds Sunday night, then again Monday through Tuesday.
