WARWICK, RI — The Warwick Weekend is packed with music, food trucks and ending with a meetup with the dogs and volunteers at the Warwick Animal Shelter Sunday, though the weather forecast calls for rain all weekend, again.

Rain is anywhere from 40-50 percent likely throughout the weekend, beginning with 40 percent Friday, 60 percent Saturday, and back to 40 percent Sunday. Prepare for the possibility with a hat and an umbrella, keep an eye on the sky, and may the odds be in your favor.
